5.0 out of 5 stars
Defying description, one beat at a time., December 5, 2002
This review is from: Minesweeper Suite (Audio CD)
I like doing my own compilations of cds, burning my favorite songs from a bunch of different cds onto one cd that I can listen to in the car. This was the first and only cd where I just burned the entire thing for a copy in the car (only burn cds that you own kids) so I could keep the original copy in my stereo. It's that good. It's fantastic. It's got beats, rhymes, and bass that are intermingled into a package that sounds like it was the source for each bit of song that /rupture utilized. Not quite techno/electronic, not quite a dj mix album, all original in presentation. Check out the track listing above for a taste of what was used, but don't expect /rupture to just sit idly by while an Aaliyah song spins. /rupture is a sound weaver, mixing and matching beats from two, three, even four songs like they were made as one to begin with. Ultimately, this cd defies any genre that I may have in my personal cd collection, making its own niche near techno/electronic, just north of hip-hop and a few spaces down from break beats. This is a masterpiece like you could never believe without giving it a spin.

What in gods names is this!!, June 12, 2003
This review is from: Minesweeper Suite (Audio CD)
This is just awesome. It switches styles from African to R&B, rap, ambient, techno, and rupture twists and destroys every song to its most primal element. Creating a magnificent soundscape only rivaled by the Avalanches Since I Left You. PEOPLE BUY THIS!!!!
