What makes this footwork follow-up formidable isn't stock horror samples or harshin' up the soundscape, it's the rigorous refinement involved and pushing onward into the abstract. After a notably business-meaning beginning it never really peaks but also doesn't quit -- prickly twitch percussion-fests are dedicated to dizzying, voice-slices and bobbleheads more efficiently utilized, wraps you in its stark bass-laden groove and tosses sounds around like ragdolls. You may even wanna dance to it. Rarely does it not transmit the tenseness of a 'tick tick ticking time bomb time bomb'; which along with its stylistic restrictions, can get tiresome, yes. Mechanized marching bands led by rattlesnakes and gym teachers.

Another instance where Jlin's work is more admirable to me than it is actually enjoyable. Her off-kilter rhythms do not induce any kind of ass-shaking (smol brain take ikr), and the vocal samples tend more towards the grating than anything.

i've listened to better eletronic albums this year. it's an interesting footwork project but it doesn't reinvent the wheel in any way and it's a bit predictable at times. still enjoyable, though. 3
