_moonraker - Lowjit Vagrants

And here we have one of the most compelling releases from an amazing run from an amazing label. Trilogy Tapes appears to be in some sort of golden age at the moment, from the damaged techno of Tuff Sherm to…this apparent transmission from techno deep space. After so much industrial techno from across the shore it took some boys from Philly (?) to make weird techno fun again. Yeah this includes a lot of high pitched whines, not-quite–4/4 beats and warbly synths galore, but damned if it doesn’t sound a peach in the waning days of summer (yeah this was released ages ago, I’m slow get over it). The boys behind _moonraker take some of the basic tools of the noise-techno-not-techno movement (if you want to call it that), add a smidge of psychedlic, synths straight out of Space Quest IV, some hints of melody, and just the right amount of grit and throw it into an interstellar grinder. Oronimbus starts things off in proper fashion, with squirly synths and a bit-crushed lead giving way to a galloping thump. It call comes off like the mothership touching down–magnificent. Plot Query might be the highlight of the record for me, it’s certainly the most straightforward missive here, as _moonraker indulges some normal-ish techno impulses to swimming effect. If Side A is the welcoming party for our new deep-space-techno-overlords, Side B is a completely different animal. After the calming ambient interlude of Cyan Lean, things get real with the positively martial Tilt March. It’s the march to our destruction at hands of the techno kind. AHH SO GOOD!
