Synopsis

Amazon.com
Jack Dangers, musician and programmer behind the immensely influential Meat Beat Manifesto, has created a captivating and moody cauldron of sound on Variaciones Espectrales. Its signature is Dangers's remarkable knack for mixing unlikely sonic components into a beguiling whole. "No Secrets No Surprises" and "Zxero" feature busy drums, robotic bass lines, bold synthesizer whoops, and arcane sound fragments, while the syncopated drum patterns on "Short Heavies" make it unpredictable and eerie. "3:00 min" is another intriguing combination of sonic elements, including subdued vocals, saxophones, and the jazzy drum sounds that have always characterized Meat Beat Manifesto's "live" feel. The album is also rich in atmosphere. "Nano" and the aptly titled "Echo in Space" are airy and mesmerizing, yet riddled with raunchy percussion. In all, Dangers mangles the disc brilliantly with insouciant sound effects and intense processing. --Mark McCleerey

Nice Danger-ous Work

"Any fans of Meat Beat's "RUOK" release out there? If so, this is a definite for your collection-- it serves as a transition from earlier musics by Dangers to "RUOK". Although the album is only about 30 minutes long, some of the pieces are very strong, and all are, at the very least, interesting. A standout quality all of the songs share is a wonderful, almost obsessive attention to electronic sounds / noises. These sounds whirl, pound, twinkle and evolve without ceasing. A good thing? You bet!"
More from the best.

"Yet another Jack Dangers project. Man, does the guy ever quit? Similar in style to the Eccentric Objects EP(limited availability from Sputnik7.com) and some of the Tino's Breaks series, Jack delivers yet another quality release. "No Secrets, No Surprises" sounds like it could have been on Subliminal Sanwich. "Echoes in Space" goes into Autechre/Aphex Twin territory, but with Jack's unique twist, of course. Worth the bread. A must for the Jack Dangers completest. BTW, if you don't have one, get a boomin' system for your ride. Then listen to your old Meat Beat Manifesto CD's and other jams while cruising."
