This
is my first official introduction to the music of Moulttrigger, even though the
name appears on several other labels that I really do enjoy so you could kind
of say that it’s only natural I’d eventually be exposed to this and like it
because any friend of my friend is a friend of mine or something like that.
“Gamme
Majeur” begins with some sharp feedback then turns into the sound of horse
trots. It has this overall vibe of
jumping around between the various genres of noise and electronic, as sometimes
there are lasers shooting and it can sound like Pacman even. The pace does pick up as well, as it seems
it does when it is closer to the electro side of things.
Amidst
the obvious, there are sounds that also come out more ambient in nature, but
also infuse hip hop. Whether or not
this is an actual genre yet (Again, I don’t care—I make up genre names all the
time and sometimes they happen to exist already) a good name for Moulttrigger
could be blipcore, as it isn’t quite that 8bit sound related to chiptune.
There
are horns and static as well, just giving us the overall complete package of
what you come to know and love from cassette artists. In many ways, it is not just the example of
one of the cassette artists I have come to love, but rather the collective of
them all smashed together. In that
sense I like it because it is what a foodie would consider to be the Everything
Burrito.
