Twelve Days/Cluster
Loren Jan Wilson II - twelve days/cluster (Ind) 19 songs of pure-strained individuality. Each one unlike the previous, yet all existing off each other. This disc is actually two releases put onto one recording. "Twelve Days" was done in 1998, whilst "Cluster" is the newest one, 1999. Only a few of the songs have lyrics to them (not that that is a problem): "sex is boring", "space", "low", & "$hkpkax_python" .... and they are all great. The rest of the music is interferences, loops, synth- a surreal soundscape. Very reminiscent of the Legendary Pink Dots, yet not so much as to where the two are the same. I didn't find a track that let me down, nor a song that made me cringe or lose interest. Sit down with this & prepare for a journey.
July 1999
