Trotsky`s Watercooler – gas money (CD-R)


Trotsky`s Watercooler is the solo noise project of mister Dan Reaves, from Orlando, Florida, USA. I like this album, it`s not harsh noise. It`s even relaxing at times. There`s six tracks and a grand total of 52.07 minutes of experimental noise. And here`s what it looks like:


1- is this thing on: low-fi frequencies (almost ambient noise) + various banging & grating = bringing me down the road to hell.
2- Mount Fuji eruption 1707: random percussions + banging + harsh distortion  (there`s something dark running in the background too).
3- happy birthday, your dying: percussions mixed with weird frequencies, providing almost musical qualities = noise techno maybe? Feels like slowed down and toned down and stoner version of  Pan Sonic..
4- for granpaw meeker (live at Austins, Winter Haven, Florida):  short light distortion \ frequency burst + grating \ scratching in the background = noise which melts in your mind not in your mouth.
5- untitled – untitled larvae cerebrum: there`s some type of dark synth line colliding with various noisy doodads = definitely meditative material here.
6- caetera desunt (rest is lost): a mashup \ a mix of various noisy stuff (distortion, phasers, what the fuck) = a chaotic infernal joyride indeed. I can`t wait to hear some more. More information here:
he`s soundcloud friendly too:
