ALTER presents the debut vinyl release from Melbourne's Trevor, aka graphic artist and Total Control drummer James Vinciguerra. Becoming A Bed gathers seven tracks that run the gamut between battered drum-machine beats, minimal-wave, scratchy noise and spoken word. Romp with Monty is the album's least demented moment and delightfully evocative of it s title with simple melodies and rigid drum machine patterns. A sharp contrast to Cabbage Land's flailing gabber and breaks combination, resembling something akin to Jamal Moss or Beau Wanzer experiencing a severe breakdown of both mind and hardware. These hybrids of erratic, free percussion and wild synth blurts (see also Midi 2 ) lend the album a charming edge, favouring a playful kind of experimentation which extends to the album's calmer moments too. Bedtime Story provides one such bit of respite and the only appearance of Vinciguerra s voice, processed here in a cold, curious monologue that ruminates on lethargy and illness, atop looping dark ambient textures. It's position in the album providing a centrepiece of cavernous and confounding simplicity. Elsewhere, tongue-in-cheek end skits sound as if they were heckled at the end of a gig and then decidedly left on the tape. The reckless rave of closing cut Speed Ave reflects this in-the-moment sensibility, the machines being close to escaping their captain. It may provide the most didactic dancing effort on the record, but neatly aligns with a loose and uninhibited mindset that skirts around the same warped techno vision as label affiliates Cru Servers or Acolytes. This is music for the most fun of dancefloors.

My daughter had been looking for this figure for a while, but was quite expensive everywhere else she'd looked. I found Yachew and it also had the cheapest price we'd seen, and free delivery as well.
Great service, arrived quickly. Very good price compared to other stores. The set itself is really good with lots of extras as well as the promo cards and 18 packs
