Mr. 76ix - 3 (Minority of 1)

I know what we should do. We should listen to some weird obscure stuff that i have on various dubbed cds. We won't dive straight into the deep end, we'll start with Mr. 76ix's 3 (Minority of 1). Truth in advertising, it's his 3rd album.

If you're totally new to electronic music, it doesn't tell you how to feel. This might sound like 52 minutes of gibberish broken into 18 completely arbitrary tracks, but what if it isn't? What if it's 18 pieces of electronic music that are stitched together to form a 52 minute stream of consciousness? No, no, i can see your face, it's clearly still gibberish.

Ok. For the sake of argument, let's say there isn't any rule that says the various sounds have to interact with each other in traditional ways. They can do their own thing, other stuff can interact and/or interfere, 3 or 9 different meters can be happening at the same time, pretty sounds and scary sounds and annoying sounds can occur in rapid succession.

This album has sampling, break beats, glitch noises, and all sorts of synths. It doesn't have to be good or bad, it can just be an imaginary playground. Whatever it makes you feel is completely valid because you are instinctively reacting to it. Yes, that means you're stuck listening to it for an hour, but what super important thing were you going to do instead?

Mr. 76ix is a complete mystery. You can't go find out more about him, other than that he has more albums if your brain isn't totally melted after this.

Don't worry, they'll get much worse....
