about

I had never heard of this label before present two discs approached my mailbox. Minimal Resource Manipulation is a British label who has now existed half a decade with the aim of releasing experimental electronic music in CDR formats. I must say that the two albums reviewed here are some inspiring releases that makes me want to hear more from the label. First album is a short one, only running approx. 20 minutes. Never the less this is true gem of trippy electronics. The album carrying the odd title “I used to be scared of the sky” is a collaboration between British composer and label owner Matt Atkins alias Platform and Simon Kobayashi a.k.a.Teruo. The result of the joint venture circulates somewhere in-between ambient, postrock and glitch. The works on the album very much focuses on strummy guitars creating some tense layers of sounds. Trippy atmospheres derived from the manipulated guitar sounds are combined with rich pallets of micro sounds and clicking pulses adding some nice depth to the electronic ambience. Four pieces of sheer beauty!
