Not Breathing - Laquarto and Perky

Searched through the backlog of releases here and didn't find it, so:

This was apparently released in 2007, but I have just acquired it, and it is really good, so I thought I would mention it. To me it has a similar feel to the Analord releases. Definitely recommended if you are into that sort of thing.

The new CD by Not Breathing mastermind Dave Wright - created entirely on Laquarto (the modular synth) and Perky (the drum machine) as the only sound sources. Recorded live direct to stereo mix with no overdubs and no outboard gear. This is one warm sounding CD - a true testament to the brilliance of Not Breathing and the Laquarto and Perky synths. I'm amazed at what one man can do in real time - this is great stuff!

Dave of NB is a genius at using a few limited pieces of gear and getting such awesome sounds out of them.

Yeah, after a few more listens I realized the Analord comparison wasn't particularly accurate. It feels more like an off-kilter mix of Cylob and Melodies from Mars.

I remember discussing this album a while back, guess it was another thread. I threw it on my iThing last week for a revisit after playing the very good The Black Old Pueblo, but haven't played it yet. Maybe today's the day.

killer album

also, killer cover art

I love the first track!!!

(but can never remember anything after that..)
