Subject: one of the most unique visions for weirdo minimal techno
Yes, this No Type release is one of it's most important contributions to the field of electronic groove music. It is really like no other minimal techno that is out there - only comparable to Camp's other two masterpieces of the same/similar era on Fallt and Groovylabs.

There is something eerily heartfelt and timeless to the melodies and beats put forth in this work - yet they can be easily recognized as a response to both early minimal techno & house (berlin's chain reaction & cologne's kompakt) and unstable-ungenre of clicks 'n' cuts. Thankfully, Camp does not dwell on enforcing the glitch aesthetic and is most interested in haunting your consciousness with fragments of music and media set into an ever-gradually-changing patterns of Minimalist groove - but DARK groove - this shit is freaky! There is a highly unique (& perhaps 'outsider' or 'bruitist') 'Camp'-style & song pattern that I never heard anywhere else. The basslines are SOOOO deep & sick they might induce vomiting at high enough volumes! (& powerful enough SUBS;)Most of the bass drums also have an equally sick treatment - sometimes sharp, high and reminiscent of the 'trance'-style pingy-hard & high bass drums (but don't think this music is "trance" - no way! althoug it is VERY HYPNOTIC) or they are delayed and panning! (breaking the law! breaking the law!)

For many, the stand-out track is the 'anthem'(!!!), "Soundwalk" featuring the vocals of K. Wong ... "you said ...you're tired...can't decide...i threw them...in the ocean" (or something like that) ... this freaks me out - I shiver as I dance..get goosebumps...together it produces a profound eroticism...worthy of late night club moments & underground sketchy basement parties with lots of smoke machines and strobes...(and all that other stuff;)

So, select "CAMP" for your next party!

& at the very least - DOWNLOAD THIS! & get it pumpin' at your next house party or when you're cruising down the boulevard or makin' experimental-freaky-love!!!
