easily as good as any drexciya album except the quest. easily as good as anything coming out of the clone or planet e camps. so much better than the rest of the ai roster.
i'd really say it's what i wanted out of the ultimately disappointing late drexciya output. it's builds on intelecto's strengths, throwing in some vibes from the other people place and the transllusion album and expands his palette to include more heavy 4/4 stomp and acid house.
other reference points: donnacha costello, gemini, baby ford - but with a heavy layer of electro production over it.
anyway everyone go geddit.

I've been driving around listening to Neurofibro and at this point I really can't endorse it too strongly. Blame the excellent Peace of Mind EP, it achieves what Neurofibro attempts in a third of the time.
But maybe I'm wrong, and need a few more spins to figure it out.

Exactly what I thought! :) I dunno, I'll have to give it some more spins too, probably at dusk or so, because after 4 tracks or so it really starts to bore me.

yes. the b-side of "blue" is very moody! i think i like the a-side of "green", probably because it's a very obvious homage to maurizio's "lyot" remix. "rubine red" is cool, too because it's a bit lighter than the others. i still need to hear "pistachio".

i think a big difference is that on "neurofibro" he's emphasizing the house/techno side of his music as opposed to electro. it's less hectic, and just ... dancier, i guess. there's that heavy layer of bass and thump that makes me think "mmm sounds like playhouse" instead of "yuk sounds like boomkat.com".

Dear Play De Record, I've never liked anything about you, but your decision to sell the Neurofibro 2XLP (new copy) for $5 is well appreciated. This is great, kind of where were you when I was 16 and listened to just this kind of music. Very nice.

Hot day here and I'm sitting in the shade listening to Reform Club and really feeling it. Those airy, shimmery synths wafting across the top of that dark, steamy bass is having an oddly cooling effect on me.
