Sound Metaphors 23 10 review
Originally released in 1998, this highly sought after Freetekno cult status release is the 3rd instalment of the Mononom series on the Dutch Mononom Soundsystem Label. With each track going past the 10 minute marker, Robert is clearly not interested in radio play, but rather, documenting the auditory experiments that came about from the relationship he was cultivating with his sonic machines.
“Dolphin” is a dubbed out, dark, growing excursion, while “8bitmahem” goes full on raw hardcore. Originally “almost impossible” to mix due to technical difficulties with the MIDI sequencer he used, this official reissue comes with a fixed version of 8bit mayhem that is now quantized for DJ mixing ease.
Explained by Robert himself: “I wrote this track with one of my first programmed (Borland Pascal 7.0) MIDI-sequencers (It's fixed now though). I found this bug after I got the pressing back from the plant and tried to mix it! I used a fixed delay between each step, but when the step itself takes longer by playing multiple notes in the sequencer, the sequencer will speed up in breaks (with less notes played) and slow down in hectical parts (loads off notes played)."
