Hakan Lidbo | 6/10/60

The wizard from Sweden goes all conceptual with this soundtrack-style acid landscape.
CD, Mitek

What do we have here? A glitch-scape? We have here indeed, ladies and gentlemen, a sixty-minute trip through glitch in all of its aspects, by Håkan Lidbo, the man from Sweden who almost compulsively keeps on reinventing himself once in a fortnight. The glitch is slowly brought to life by slowly creeping ambient-glitch. Then the landscape unfolds with sputtering electro glitch and a light measure of techno-glitch. And we think that at a certain point we were aware of distant dub-glitch echoes and sweet vocoder glitches. You could say: that sure is a lot of glitch. But to be honest: we have been listening to it for about 50 minutes now and boredom has not shown his ugly face yet. Pure night music, that is to be filed next to Chain Reaction, Pole, Vladislav Delay and other soundtracks for movies that exist only in the minds of their makers. A fascinating journey through hypnotizing minimalism that keeps you on edge until the last glitch has died out. And all this time not a single beat in ear-sight.
