Sometimes a mere word can encapsulate so much of what you want to say about something, and then you find you use even more words to corrupt the initial motive. Anyway, the word is 'tech', and that leads me on to say this... in terms of very good electronic music, with a 'dark' (another word!!!) thread, this album ticks all the right boxes. Even the attitude is something I can relate to. Anyway, the point is that this production is on the tech side of the void. That is at least, a perspective. Something like the combination of water and smoke, one element becomes enhanced, whilst the other degrades. Who wants to drink the water then? Well some do, although there is no need to be an intrepid explorer here with some good, decent sounds.
