Apollo by Machinefabriek

Das Machinefabriek is back with another self released job. This one is hand numbered of 100 copies in a a kind of mock envelope and I have to say it looks very nice. It starts off all spacey with some goon from Nasa or somewhere or other banging on about space things (like they do) before it creeps into more familiar Machinefabriek territory. It's a 21 minute piece of music which proper builds up into a super intense epic. There's some insanely shrill frequencies knocking about on here which I kinda like though my right ear is ringing a bit so I can't but help feel like I've done some damage. Thank you Machinefabriek. Bits of this are quite harsh and other bits are easier on the ear (especially when the birds are tweeting). Loads of textures and layers of stuff going on and strange noises crackling an fizzing away. Very enjoyable indeed.

An alternate edit of the soundtrack I've made for
Makino Takashi`s experimental film 'In Your Star'.

The disc comes in a nice oversized, full colour paper sleeve,
limited to 100 numbered copies.
