3.2 goodErwann S. EMERITUS | October 7th 20

Sonic Youth Recordings 5, but it's not really Sonic Youth, Kim partnering with DJ Olive - the dude that came up with the "illbient" term - and Ikue Mori - who, among many other things, was the drummer of no wave band DNA. So you've got people that were an important part of experimental music, and surprise: they're doing experimental music - whatever that really means. A free improv, mega abstract electroacoustic work that lets textures flow, fly, live, and die. That sounds abstruse innit? It is for sure, most of it having no structure - and there's a toilet flushing. Yet it kinda works as an object that, at the same time, didn't annoy me and left a Pitchfork reviewer "sad and blank". Let's not get carried away mate.
