Twerk: Shawn Hatfield. Forget Cologne. Forget Berlin. This is the sound of data crumbling, of hard-drives reacting to error messages and their own corrupted rhythms. This is the sound of Twerk, one Shawn Hatfield, and if he and his associates get their way, there won't be an unspoiled discdrive left to mangle. Twerk isn't concerned with just spinning atmospherics around a 4/4 beat. Hatfield wishes to re-orient the bitmaps of future music, using the base materials provided by his computers, blistering the machinery's internal mechanisms to satisfy a virgin soundbank. The clipped beats and hiccupping data of "CCS Pressure" resemble EKGs wired for sound, polluted by streaming percussive sensors and electronic radar blips. "Consumed" goes even further. Ghosts of data past and future carve out rhythms while synths whirl out their death throes in short, random bursts. This is techno falling apart, beats on the verge of disintegrating, a brave new head-dance ready to function in a brave new world. |
