What we say

Rating: happy This record left our Phil feeling happy.

I always start of Christ reviews with.... 'Christ is some dude who used to be in Boards of Canada but left to do his own thing and he's like the Pete Best of the electronic world'. Well I probably don't but thinking about it I think maybe I should. Because of his previous connections he's always been tarred with the Boards brush...... This new 12" called Vernor Vinge is as good or if not better than anything on the last Boards album. Nice slow paced melodic electronica with simple beats thus relying on the melody to make it stand up. Which is does in spades... Lovely indeed!

About the humble 12":

The 12" is the big brother of records as it's an fatter version of the 7", with a vast scope for an array of remixes and B sides. They are slightly less portable their smaller inched brethren but they're by no means inferior. Often the grooves are spaced wider apart and thus sound much much better. You can fit ample tracks on and if worse comes to worse they make fine plates (should your crockery go awol). Yes, there's a hole but holes are easy to sort out. Once again they're available on many different colours and guises. The best thing about a 12" is the potential vastness of the artwork. Also playable on many speeds!!
