Aelters – Archilds’ com.undo 7.1


Dat Politics lost child creates his own music on this release. It is similar to Dat Politics, if Dat Politics became more hyper active. You probably can’t keep up with the amount of energy he releases, but it is worth trying.

                Right from the get-go “k no p” you’re treated to his method: fast beats, broken up attempts at melody. These usually fail. That’s ok. His cut-ups of children's (his own) infuse a little humanity into the otherwise purely digital environment. Only “jestood” comes close to have a full-fledged melody. The weird noise approximates Goodiepal in a more conventional pop sense.

                Funk is all over the place. Emeric Aelter possess a good sense of rhythm, though he tries his best to destroy it at times. Listening to the music, you begin to understand why he left Dat Politics. Occasionally his music feels a bit too broken, especially considering Dat Politics’ later move towards accessibility.

                Still, despite the sometimes difficult nature of the album, it doesn’t overstay its welcome. It remains a cheerful guest in your mind.
