The glitch and drop of warp records meets the layered baroque psychedelia of Henry Cow in PcOnTrApTiOn (read: potato-contraption), a collaboration pairing the electro-sonic emanations of Johann Meier (Jopy) with the arrangement and production skills of RDunlap (who also sometimes contributes idiosyncratic programming and performance on vintage hardware digital synth). The contraption navigates an audio space where filtered static, disjointed motorik rhythms, frantic electro beats, eno-pads, and the odd robot singer blend together, at turns foreboding, lush, and even uplifting. Glitchy textures, sci-fi synths and off-the-beaten-path rhythmic ideas, augmented of late with instrumental performances (guitar, piano, sax, bass) and occasional jazz flavorings.

really digging the Expedition CD. cool IDM flavors with some nice abstract shadings. good timbres & space - works great on headphones. I think I'm becoming addicted to the title track and Flux Rider.
