I've been checking the Platipus website and their Myspace weekly for months now awaiting news about their new album so I'm not sure how I missed this, but the new album from masters of acid trance is out! Pylon Pigs was released September 14th by Platipus. Simon Giussani is replaced by Paul Brodgen on this one. Papillion sounded promising so I have very high expectations.
uch the whole thing melts perfectly together. The album is pretty up-tempo compared to other psychill releases and you won’t find many ambient moments except for the first track which has a very beautiful intro. The only minus is that some of the tracks are a little too repetitive, but I guess after three listens in a row you would get that impression with any album. Expect some very interesting samples. Psychill and dub lovers will find everything they like about this kind of music on this release and some more, because unlike some other artists Slackbaba has his own distinctive style. This is definitely one of the best psychill/psydub albums I have heard in months and deserves way more recognition. Let’s hope he will release another album soon because this one is a real gem.
