CHEFKIRK/IVERSEN: split

Artist: CHEFKIRK/IVERSEN
Title: split
Format: CD
Label: XV Par?wek (@)
Rated: * * * * *
A split cdr released by Polish noisemaker XV Parówek: Chefkirk, who I've never hard of before, offers 11 short tracks, Iversen one longer one. The former delivers some digi-noise assault, obtuse crackings ("(R+M)/2 Method"), some glitch ("Megaceryle Alcyon"), some short ambient loops... bust it's mostly harsh noise, nothing spectacular but savage and varied enough to entertain. A shame that the more atmospheric parts are just fragments, without much composition. "Being boiled hurts" is a great title. Iversen (also in Koff Koff, Kredi Dubi, Origami Klassika and TIBprod label) offers his "Caligula symphony d" which is, like the parts on other releases, a collage of loops, synthetic drones, and (real-time?) digital manipulations - distortions, pitch-shiftings etc. I don't like it, I'm sorry but I find it just boring, under-produced and tiring. It has no grasp on me.
