This week's PBS Feature Album is Sleep D’s new LP, Electronic Arts. The release mirrors the 'anything goes' mania of their DJ sets, tactfully shifting through different sounds and styles. Tempos intensify and decelerate, at times pushing the threshold to 150 bpm from docile canine dreamscapes to full tilt Space Invaders in AR mind games.
Largely built on road tested material from Sleep D's live performances, Electronic Arts is a profound matrix of ambient techno, motorik, Don Cherry and Everything But the Girl. Also touching on apocalyptic doof and minimal, the album is not exclusively peak time with Maryos Syawish and Corey Kikos’ specialty curveballs also playing their part.
Tune in all this week to hear tracks from Electronic Arts, and PBS Members have the chance to win a copy of the album on vinyl via emailing giveaways@pbsfm.org.au before C.O.B. Friday June 30. Not a PBS Member? Join now!
