"1-Speed Bike is the techno alter-ego of Aidan Girt, drummer for the Montreal based bands Exhaust and Godspeed You Black Emperor. From its humble beginnings on a first-generation 8-bit Akai sampler, 1-Speed Bike has progressed towards new and improved resolution on this debut full length, while maintaining a decidedly punk irreverence and ramshackle aesthetic. First heard on the 3 remixes interspersed throughout the self-titled Exhaust record, 1-Speed Bike beat manipulations are characterized by live drum phrases that pulse and breathe with organic dynamism, chopped and looped to form the backbone for melodic passages that range from the irreverent to the sublime."
