////////REVIEW////////
Kontroljet got it all under
control. Well maybe not ‘all’ as that would make Kontroljet into some kind of
divine creature, but music and especially sound wise it’s definitely under
Kontroljet’s control. Well not in speaking terms of all music and sounds but in
speaking terms of Kontroljet’s own MIX-MAX release.
It’s (I’m not good at math)
around 19 minutes in length and did surprise me in a good way. For some reason the
legs in nylon and the name printed on the release cover made me expect that it
would be some kind of techno-house-dance kind of thing, but that turned out to
be totally not the case. I love it when that happens; when you automatically
judge a book by its cover and than you open it and it’s nothing as you would
have expected. And so did MIX-MAX turn my prejudgement into a foolish one, as
this release had nothing to do with dance music in the casual sense of the
word. I mean considering that we live in a time and age that people are doing
noise yoga, there is plenty or reason to suggest that there are people dancing
on music or sounds that aren’t necessarily made to dance upon.
So Kontroljet’s MIX-MAX is
as I see it more made for sitting down and silent admiration. Just open the
ears and let Kontroljet’s controlled scenes of sound crisper in them.
Kontroljet will take good care of both your ears and these sounds, mixing them
in and out through kind ways, creating an active soundscape of fresh twinkling
twinkles. I didn’t really feel it as an audio trip, but more as something that
was nice and light, mixing and matching favorable sounds away in what appears
to be one take with 3 different sound chapters. The beginning is coming across
very light, material to get slowly used to Kontroljet’s control of sounds. Than
the middle part which seems to be more full in volume and content, and then the
end part in which the mixing in the max becomes a subtle abstract form of
active ambient crispers.
