2.5 average | Bedex | February 27th 20 | A disappoint imo. The record really struggles to find the balance between being weird and being interesting. Whereas the Whities 016 EP was intriguingly bizarre, this one just sounds random and experimental just for the sake of being experimental for the bulk of the record. In a word it lacks atmosphere. 1 is a fun opening which would maybe not be a great track in a vacuum but that I appreciate as an opener , and 2 is kinda cool dark techno that works very well in places but also a lots of random sampled bits that I didn't quite enjoy. Most of it is solid though. 3 is sort of ok with a detuned hungover kinda vibe to it, but 4-6 is just boring weirdness. 7 tries to go back to something more straightforward with some techno again, but the boring 808 sounds just feel lazy and it really isn't a good track either. 8 is sort of weird ambient but just passes, and 9 saves this from 2.0 range with a passable pounding techno track that HATE could have published, that is really not all that fantastic with some meh bits but that has at least some fun moments and isn't aggressively boring. Eh. 2.25
