Some opinions about Grave Rave

Sveriges förmodligen främste breakcorenöt - Chaos Through Programming - gör det igen. Denna gång är alstret betitlat »Grave Rave« och det är en sjuhelsikes resa genom genrer, beats, ljud, galenskap och »death petrol for the dance craze«. Bättre än väldigt mycket annat. Som vanligt står Push The Button bakom släppet, ett skivbolag som en dag kommer att föda mina bebisar, helt klart.

From Sonic (Johan Jacobsson)

Things have been silent for Chaos Through Programming, from Malmö, Sweden. Their previous release, 'Rock N Roll Genocide' dates from more than a year ago (Vital Weekly 427), but still the sampler plays an important role in the music of Chaos Through Programming. Breakbeats, samples of orchestras, drums, guitars - the whole musical lot of twenty centuries of music seems to be crammed into these thirty-one minutes. Chopin's funeral march appears in 'Happy New Deer Hunting Season', crashing nicely with the beats. Sometimes a sample passes by and it sticks in your head as one of those things you know, but can't place. Highly energetic, along the lines of Venetian Snares (although with a less deep production) or Books On Tape - to mention two others from this week's weekly - with the speed and energy of punk music. Maybe not as fresh as it was before, you can be pleasantly surprised once I guess, but nevertheless a great release, again.
