On
my first exposure to filth and third outing with developer, I can begin to see
the resemblance with these two, and thus why they would be paired together for
a split.
Side
A brings out what can only be best described as a video game set in space. The overall sound is spatial, yet there are
sounds of missiles firing as well. This
is over the general destruction and static of noise, so it isn’t really what
you would refer to as 8bit or even a clear video game soundtrack. Regardless, it is good and I do enjoy enough
to want to find other tapes by filth now.
Side
B delivers a melee of noise from developer that begins with crickets chirping
and then goes into a lot of static and other noises before finally resting in
this sort of strange not-quite-video-game atmosphere. Oh,
and there’s also this loop that’s somewhere between an old fashioned telephone
being dialed and the purr of a robotic kitten.
This all comes to a close with what sounds like a pinball machine being
obliterated and that’s kind of cool as well.
I
have never felt this way about any piece of music before, but I will tell you
for the first time that I want to get another of these tapes and play them at
the same- only opposite sides- and see what it sounds like because it almost
feels as if they’re having some sort of video game competition we’re not being
told about.
