Review:
After a series of house releases, Agaric brings an experimental techno sensibility to Swedish label Kontra. "Subaquatic Mechanic" is an unusual lead track; like much of Agaric's output, it is based on a stripped back groove full of intricacies and which houses emotive synths random vocal samples and bursts of noisy sounds."Playing Games" is less adventurous and sees Agaric bring deep chords together with hazy percussive licks, but he returns to the kitchen sink approach on "High Voltage Monkey". A warbling bassline is at its heart and crunchy break beats steer a path to a place at the fringes of conventional techno.
