Synopsis

Product Description

Following the previous album Problem/Solving, a thematic musical mosaic of personal disorder and resolve, Routes presents a dynamic trip through many experiences, documents a year of traveling to new and untold places, and etches into stone the aural fragments of the moods that came with them. Manic torn breakbeats, psychedelic lock-grooves, crumbly downtempo, and revelatory musical progressions permeate the album amidst sounds of subways, highways, and trains. KiloWatts has taken the adventure, vagrancy, and trepidation of traveling and wrapped it up into a compelling album; Notably new, but unmistakably KiloWatts, the album takes us on a vibrant, energetic aural road-trip.

CD Reviews

Smother Magazine's Review

Artificial Music Machine | 07/18/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"[[Editor's Pick]]

I reviewed their "Problem/Solving" album a while back here on Smother Magazine and thoroughly enjoyed it. They continue in the ambient vein with some dark and dank tunes that sound like processed field recordings with distorted psychedelic sonic etchings drawn through them. There's plenty of melody and catchiness though, just check out "Learn to Love Loneliness" which despite it despondent and melancholy moniker is a richly texture bleep riddled glitchy IDM beat-oriented groovy anthem. Think Aphex Twin with a little dash of Autechre and plenty of hypnotic groove and downtempo breaks. I'm thinking about how redefining this album is for the whole IDM and ambient genre in of itself. If you don't pick up this album, you're missing out on a genre-definer for sure.
