5.0 out of 5 stars what a combination,two of the finest electronica acts around
This record is a split featuring casino vs japan and Freescha.
Both are electronic acts, with a boards of canada feel, but oh with so much more. Freescha's 2002 album "what's come inside" has to be one of my all time favourite releases. Seriously. If you are a fan of boards of canada or morr music (or soft IDM) you will love freescha. Same goes for Casino...

3.0 out of 5 stars Weak effort
Don't get me wrong, individually, I love the vast majority of the work both of these artists produce. It just feels to me that these traks were leftovers... or that it was just thrown together just to make some cash. There is really no emotion; nothing to identify with. All of their other releases are much better, in my opinion. It was a cute idea, but poorly executed.

4.0 out of 5 stars The latest and one of the greatest in dark ambient., April 30, 2004
This review is from: Split EP (Audio CD)
Freescha is new to me, but I've recently become a big fan of Casino vs. Japan, who seems to become a stronger artist with each release-- no mean feat for an ambient artist. The seven tracks here are what you might call 'hard ambient.' Beats abound, but the songs maintain a moody soundscape that is a must for fans of ambient along the lines of FSOL, Woob, or Boards of Canada. Personally, I think the comparisons to BOC are a little overstated. Casino doesn't have the same retro-psychedelic feel-- it's 100% 21st century. Dark, urban, yet nostalgic for a simpler, more idyllic time. Highly recommended, and a reasonably priced introduction to a couple of genuine up-and-comers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good EP, April 5, 2011

This review is from: Split EP (Audio CD)
Nice CD to listen to. Odd tracks are Casino Versus Japan and even tracks are Freescha. Come Along, Do is my favorite track so far. I wouldn't start oput with this CD if you're new to either of these artists. Freescha's "What Comes Inside You" and Casino Versus Japan "Whole Numbers Play the Basics."
