They Say...
This penultimate volume in the series Bip-Hop Generation is a lot more listener-friendly and, although the two don't necessarily go hand in hand, less exciting -- surely less challenging. Once more six artists were allowed ten to 15 minutes each, but this time most decided to submit a single extended track. In some cases (Mikael Stavöstrand, Tonne) it works to their advantage; in others it doesn't (Accelera Deck, Andrew Duke). "Bloom" is Chris Jeely's last track as Accelera Deck. It would have made a cool ambient techno tune cut in half. Canada's Andrew Duke contributes the 15-minute "Alphabetic," once again a well-tailored piece, smooth-flowing and catchy, but nothing here deserves such a long exposure. Mikael Stavöstrand (from Sweden) and Tonne (from England) follow a more textural approach, but the standout track is Rechenzentrum's "Le Joujou du Pauvre" (The Poor Man's Toy). Beginning as a noise soundscape, it evolves into something of a hard-glitch track with some warped trumpet. The honor of closing this installment goes to D'Iberville (aka Julien Berthier), who is responsible for the series design. His three shorter tracks explore very different moods, with "Le Souffle C'Est la Vie" being the most disturbing. A CD-ROM portion contains a "sound toy" designed by Tonne that allows you to build your own four-track loops.
