Excellent sad, nostalgic techno by Melbourne producer Abstract Mutation, from a new cassette entitled Fake Keygen which is due August 26 through the 1080p cassette label. ‘Expert Loner’ is bright and almost whimsical, but the way its beats and arpeggios modulate in and out of focus suggests something disintegrating, or something misinterpreted. The beats sound like they’ve been taped into a cardboard box and flung into a river, while the melodies bubble in and out of time, like a fizz of random primary colors. Definitely recommended if you’re a fan of Ferraro, Lopatin, maybe even Voigt.
