Universal Cell Unlock 'Quasimodo The Streetsweeper' 12" vinyl

What remarks can recall the pampered page when the subject shines through so many shaken seams? The remarks are for the producer of QUASIMODO THE STREETSWEEPER, the mysterious, though constantly revealing, CF, presenting himself here as UNIVERSAL CELL UNLOCK. Christopher Forgues of Brown Recluse Alpha, Mark Lord, Kites, and author of blazetastic comic books –ever checkout Powr Mastrs? What remarks could remain after all that? However, one still finds this fresh pile of inviting and mature music, coated in the haunting haze of digital reverb.

What premeditated remark could recharge reminisces of New York more than the city’s newly appointed director of rodent mitigation? The lost legend of Tony Conrad running up the steps of a Manhattan church to meet the mysterious mad one playing the bells in the spire, Charlemagne Palestine. The bristles from the machines of swirling repetition that push parking brush to the side are repurposed here as pluckphonic metal keys, mined for their rich harmonic content. There are strategies taken from the decidedly unfocused on New York musical tradition of American and global capital-N Noise music. An invitation to a closed eye head bob is quickly revoked with a shock call to attentiveness. There’s an attentiveness here. Across forty minutes of percussion music, with some stark electronic accouterments along the way, the focus on the form and compositional aspects is forgotten only to let the sounds build and interact without pesky human interruption. That’s the remark to recall: remarkable music with new surprises pushed through. - Ben Kudler
