When
this cassette begins, there is someone speaking in French, but I’m not really
certain as to what is being said. This
leads into an organ type of sound, which begins this pattern that sounds to me
like a slowed down version of the Hong Kong Phooey theme song. I’m not sure if it’s intentional, but my mind
is singing “Number one super guy” along with this part of the cassette.
There
are a lot of twists and turns for the weird on this cassette, as it goes from
Side A to Side B almost seamlessly. They sing without words, but for the most part
this is instrumental. There are
distorted blips, 8bit ambience and along with the bells this can even begin to
just sound like one big improvised riff.
Percussion
heavy beats also come into play, as lasers are being shot and something else
sounds like popcorn popping. Side B
gives way to a little bit more of what I’d think of as being jungle beats, and
then an audio clip comes on asking “Do you like water?” Really, it’s irrelevant as to whether or not
anyone actually likes water as it is one of our core staples for survival.
I
wasn’t sure what to expect from this going in, but experimental is one of the
best ways to describe it, if not the only means of keeping it brief, yet there
is so much more to it than just that and it is just solid.
