fractured & rhythmic avant-psychedelic symphonies
21 Jun 2011
Format:Audio CD
8th release from this New York City based hip-hop producer-cum-experimental composer, aka
Scott Herren, who has also recorded as Savath & Savalas, Delarosa & Asora. These are highly
detailed, fractured & rhythmic avant-psychedelic symphonies that mix a twisted sense of chaotic
melody with dissident, unconventional arrangements. They are often dreamy & haunted,
bordering on bedlam, with otherworldly textures & progressions that are focused on the
processed female voice--with contributions from Zola Jesus, Shara Worden (My Brightest
Diamond), Angel Deradoorian (Dirty Projectors), Trish Keenan (Broadcast), and others. It's a
scary/stunning post-classical nightmare of manipulated siren songs.

surprising, adventurous...
26 May 2011
on first listen, was not sure about this; i love the 'old' prefuse 73 (the early, glitchy, hiphop stuff).
"ampexian" didn't work for me; too...something about it (prog-rock? busy?); i don't remember, i deleted it.
but this... more 'goth-electronica' than say glitchy hiphop, and...i'm loving it. dreamy female vocals floating about, dense keyboards, more texture than song structure mostly.
so, different, but worthwhile. definitely worth listening to.
it's a great time for new music (toro y moi, oh no ono, the weeknd, etc). this fits right in to '2011"...

A new muse
23 Sep 2011
Format:Audio CD
In The Forest of Sensitivity and now the Only She Chapters, Prefuse 73 has dumped the stale hip-hop jargon in favour of ethereal female vocalisations, sometimes harmonised (... Guitar to Die For, ... Hand to Hold), sometimes fractured (... Trial of 9000 Suns), sometimes absent (... Valentine's Day Failure). Inspiring some of the best electronic work I've heard from Herren, the choir's obviously got his creative juices flowing (and vice versa). This release may take a few listens to fully grow on you (as it did for me), but that's only an adjustment to a better chapter (oops) in his musical career. My ears just can't put this book down.
