His debut │ │ album, 'Live For Never,' reminded the │ │ electronic world of the intricacies and │ │ emotional heights of Drum & Bass, and carried │ │ the genre into new realms of sonic │ │ possibility. 'Live For Never' appealed to │ │ different scenes across the board (and around │ │ the world), receiving rapturous applause from │ │ electronic music's toughest critics (Resident │ │ Advisor, Boomkat, FACT) and magazine gurus │ │ alike (DJ Magazine, IDJ). In March 2011, │ │ Consequence made his second album appearance │ │ on Exit Records with Joe Seven, as They Live: │ │ the duo's 'Cancel Standard' was an immersive, │ │ sci-fi laced album that set the bar for the │ │ year rather high. Consequence decided to end │ │ 2011 with one more album, however: his │ │ long-awaited sophomore solo LP: 'Test │ │ Dream.' 'Test Dream' is not for those who │ │ expect the next logical evolution of 'Live │ │ For Never.' It's also not for the │ │ unadventurous, nor for those who seek easily │ │ digestible music. Creatively free, │ │ Consequence revels in pure electronic │ │ experimentation, and the result is an album │ │ that follows no rules, and explores fractal │ │ dimensions that defy conventional genres. The │ │ downtempo compositions on the LP manage to │ │ hold the intensity and propelling urgency of │ │ high BPM electronic music, even though some │ │ of the tracks are relatively beatless. │ │ 'Before I Go' takes the listener to space and │ │ back, while 'Can't Say' comes through with │ │ staggered synths and rugged drums, building │ │ an atmosphere where each sound tells a story. │ │ 'Marlo', meanwhile, is a welcome retreat from │ │ the tension built in its predecessors, with a │ │ reassuring melody, softly rhythmic snaps and │ │ handclaps, smooth vocals and warm pads. 'Of │ │ Uncertainty' reveals a slow beauty that │ │ builds with impeccable grace, adding colours, │ │ slowed vocals and tranquil atmospheres along │ │ the way. Ever a many-faced producer, │ │ Consequence's album takes a few forays into │ │ more haunting, cryptic territories. 'Just │ │ Water', filled with creepy effects and │ │ sinister samples, leaves the listener nothing │ │ short of on-edge, especially with a finale │ │ that sounds not much unlike C3PO being ripped │ │ to shreds. And 'Magda Trench' sounds like a │ │ video game that's burning under a microscope, │ │ rendering fractured pixels into outer │ │ space. Staying true to his roots, Consequence │ │ brings the album back through the tangles of │ │ the jungle, and voyages into heavier D&B │ │ landscapes. 'Oden' and 'Soul Sees Spirit' │ │ feel slightly apocalyptic, with soaring │ │ ominous-filled synth builds and hard-hitting │ │ drums that will darken (and deepen) any │ │ dancefloor instantaneously. There are many │ │ surprises tucked within, too, of course. │ │ 'Re-occuring' has ascending melodies that │ │ sound as though they could dance in a Giorgio │ │ Moroder universe: a transportive space-capade │ │ that gives an aural tour through a cluster of │ │ stars. Powered by a stuttered melody on a │ │ wavering synth line, 'Lovershell' is one for │ │ code-crackers: an intriguing ball of chaos │ │ that slowly starts to make sense as it comes │ │ together. The dub-drenched 'Slant' starts out │ │ mysterious in feel, takes a swift turn for │ │ anxiety and suddenly breaks into an enigmatic │ │ poem slowly recited in a sing-song │ │ manner. 'Untitled', with a yearning vocal │ │ that floats through an ambiguous atmosphere, │ │ closes the album on that typical Consequence │ │ note: with lines being tightrope-walked and │ │ left obliterated. 'Test Dream' grows and │ │ unfolds more with each listen, giving way to │ │ explorations of dense sound universes. │ │ │ │ │ │ note: track 12 contains two hidden bonus tracks. │ │ │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ┌───────────────────────────┐ ┌┘ ┌───┬┬─┬─┬┐┌─┬┬─┬─┬─┬─┐ └┐ │ │ │ ││└│┌┤│││││ │││││ │ ┌────────────────────┘ «│ │ │├┐│└┤└┤ │││ │┤┌┤ ┤» └──────────────────────┐ │ │ │ ├┴─┴─┴─┴┴┴┴┴─┴┴─┴┴┘ │ │ └───┘═════════════════ │ │ │ │ This release may contain copyrighted material, however SWEET guarantees │ │ that this material was at least available to one person "on the street" │ │ and that the possession of this material is in no way privileged. │ │ │ │ SOUR has been releasing good quality drum'n'bass, jungle & oldskool │ │ rips to the internet drum'n'bass public since summer 1999. Originally a │ │ small operation, we have now reached levels of international acclaim. │ │ │ │ SWEET is our most recent offspring dedicated to bring you quality │ │ electronic music that is not included in SOURs regular genre list. │ │ │ │ SWEET is dedicated to both the availability and promotion of music to │ │ the public, and our rips are intended to reflect these ideals. │ │ │ │ Specifically: │ │ │ │ . SWEET is dedicated to the promotion of new music that is currently │ │ available to buy. If you like something you hear, you are obliged to │ │ attempt to purchase an original copy. │ │ │ │ . SWEET is dedicated to the promotion of old music that may no longer │ │ be available to buy. │ │ │ │ . SWEET is dedicated to the expansion and infiltration of electronic │ │ music worldwide! We provide a service where none is available, │ │ specifically in many remote countries where traditional distributors │ │ can not afford to target. Also, the availability of electronic music │ │ in an easily accessible form expands the potential for real world │ │ sales to people who may not otherwise have considered buying this │ │ kind of music. │ │ │ │ . SWEET is dedicated to the expansion of the online and offline real │ │ world scenes. With more listeners enjoying what they hear, clubs and │ │ venues can only expect MORE people to attend events; DJ's can only │ │ expect MORE people to pay to see THEM. │ │ │ │ By accident of today's current real world distribution arrangements, │ │ many artists will find that SWEET releases IMPROVE their real world │ │ sales; especially for items only on vinyl. This is the basis upon │ │ which SWEET operates. │ ├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ Logo 2002 by ave/bm, Nfo-Design 2002 by seQ & acryl │ └─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
