Cray would deserve this.

TENNIS : europe on horseback [bleep 03]
Europe on Horseback, as its title suggests, is a relaxed voyage. The rhythms
slowly draw you into a cushioned saddle and an electronic trot then begins,
taking us through fields of bubble bass, valleys of sonic glitches, and mountains
blooming with digitalia. Not quite as minimal as Pole but just as deep. They
never break into a gallop, conserving energy rather than letting it run wild.
This record is a form of deconstructed dub / house which avoids 4/4 time at every
corner creating a relaxed, challenging and accessible electronica lined with
interesting bass lines. A great full-length from bip-hop stables.

SPACEHADS and MAX EASTLEY : the time of the ancient astronaut [bleep 04]____May
2001
A world of high opera and tipsy beats that then cascades with a metallic
pounding. Haunting trumpet melodies over soft drones and textures sets the mood.
The music takes on cinematic proportions as the terrain unfolds. Interstellar
landscapes are revealed.
MAX EASTLEY plays The Arc. A nine foot long mono chord. One string stretched over
wood and played with a bow or glass rods. The pitch is changed by flexing the
wood. The string can also be shortened with clips. It is then fed into electronic
effects.
The SPACEHEADS is a duo mixing trumpet and electronics with drums and percussion.
Plaintive trumpet calls are looped across pulsing beats that propel us into
sheets of metal crashing and vibrating through tiny pick ups cranked to the full
and then spun into electronic webs.
