UWU SLAUGHTER

Leaving aside the curious name of the album, this work is interesting to me for other reasons. First, because it is played by only one person (perhaps not so rare nowadays) and with MIDI instruments. And second, because the mind behind it is some kind of geek who seems to be inspired by retro video game music and progressive rock in its most traditional form.

The first impression I have when immersing myself in this album is that of listening to something generated by Artificial Intelligence. All the keyboard and synth sounds are the most basic you find in artists of this type. The melodies and harmonies are quite limited and simple (it gives me the impression that it was done with a Mini Mk3 controller, which makes this more interesting). To this we add the collage characteristic that the album has, with many ideas that are happening and repeating without further ado. And despite being music without identity, it is curiously fun to listen to this apparent artifice.
