All tunes on Shred feature cascading ambient textures and one specific kind of boom-boom. Whether the boom-boom takes the form of jungle, breakbeat, or techno, it mainly transpires minimalism ("Melczop 2" being an obvious exception) yet never fails to induce some ass-shaking.

Eloquently shifts between/skillfully marries floaty atmospherics and zippy microcosmic beat-work, consistently hits a junctional sweet spot of driving+elaborate+reflective while remaining sufficiently subdued -- the expanse and expertise of it is admirable, and though I dig some tossed in hand-drum+spoon-clack percussion and possible skateboard references and complicated chill beats as much as the next guy, the whole of it feels so drawn out; and ultimately i.e. maybe halfway through, rooted predictability settles in. Driving as it may be at times, scarcely do I get through a track or two without gettin' at least a lil snoozy. Not a bad thing obviously, especially when it's imaginably somehow beneficial to the brain and momentarily wondrous -- would like a bit more moxie in its tatterin' is all.
