Washing machine sounds - the album. In the end it's an IDM album with musique concrete leanings and a destructured structure (lel) that rests on its gimmicks. Not my cuppa, but a cool experience nonetheless.

For what it is, which is sampled based from every sound a washing machine makes, this cycle of tunes just might be the cocktail party discussion on how sampling isn't just for a few genres, or someone else's music. Wow.

It took time to really appreciate how magnificent this is. Once I learned that /every/ sound was from a washing machine, and the kind of things Matmos did to it to make certain noises, I was thoroughly impressed. It's unfortunate I could only get into Matmos now.

Its a washing machine, the whole thing! But it works, very novelty I'd say. Worth the listen.

All spin-cycle and AWOL-sock jokes aside, this makes quite the mercurially labyrinthine romp out of exclusively washer-derived sounds; transmitting a sort of exorbitant cut-up reconstruction of what the super-DUPER-wash setting might be like. Thus its format as a single 38-minute composition, in all of its cumbersome delight -- of course one consistently fluctuating with ups+downs, vigor+lulls, pure meandering, alien+domestic. The alien being that many-a-sound could be construed as just about anything other than a washing machine, having been mutated into whatever the fuck fits; the domestic being the reality-reminders of knob-cranks and soapy aqua-shuffles that seemingly cleanse the mind. And when they just flat-out rhythmically beat the shit out of the thing, that's cool too. Always nice to see object-technicians that acknowledge both mad manipulation and plain ol plainness. Is it just me or does that buzzer-click closure absolutely epitomize a domestic reality-reminder?
