Our Take

In the vast expanse of experimental electronic music, John Wall and Mark Durgan have created a sonic journey unlike anything you've heard before with their latest collaboration, "Contraptin." This album is a wild, unpredictable rollercoaster of glitchy beats, dissonant melodies, and unexpected sonic textures that will leave your ears begging for more.

From the opening track, "Circuitous," to the hauntingly beautiful closer, "Scrapheap Orchestra," Wall and Durgan take you on a musical adventure that is as exciting as it is strange. The duo's unique blend of avant-garde soundscapes and intricate production techniques is a testament to their years of experience in the industry.

One standout track is "Rusty Robot Rave," a pulsating, hypnotic banger that will have you dancing uncontrollably in your living room. The way Wall and Durgan layer distorted vocals over glitchy synths and booming basslines is pure genius.

Despite its experimental nature, "Contraptin" never feels pretentious or inaccessible. Instead, it invites you to lose yourself in its chaotic beauty, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in its strange, otherworldly atmosphere.

Overall, John Wall and Mark Durgan have crafted a truly unique and captivating album with "Contraptin." It's a must-listen for anyone who craves innovation and boundary-pushing in their music. Give it a spin and prepare to be transported to a world unlike any other.
