This review is from: Scare Tactics (MP3 Download)

Antonio Mazzitelli (AM) and Turtable Actor Chloroform (TAC) return on Out of Obscure with their third split EP, this time trading blowss on the rim of an abyss. AM strikes first with "Spirit Hoover", trying to suck it all in with a deep pulsing tune, and then TAC hits back with an almighty inhale on "Atomic Pipe", a love story of an 8-bit console sound chip and an insistant rhythm guitar finding a common tounge to tell each other that they're just right together, they should get it on tonight. Now they know the stakes, and know whats required here, AM takes his time about it and "Horrific Path" builds toward a distant cresendo, before looking to the side and seeing quite where it is. Then it does what you should never do, it looks down, and theres no way back from this. "Hallucination A" is a devious move from TAC, ambient interlocking distant voices and a very near and present bassline contradict and make it seem like nothing is quite real. "Paranoid" (AM) is well named, but though there is fearful acid dripping fron this track, there are brief moments of uplifting lucidity coming through with reaching pads flashing through, before a voice starts telling you something. TAC has the last word. and "Hallucination B" settles the matter peacefully with the boltgun screwing robots firing to their own tribal rhythm before the little japanese arcadegames start singing a little musical number they learnt at school and the robots fit in kodo beats.
