Peter’s House Music – Jump 12” EP (All Hands Electric)
“Instant composition” electronic beats and uptempo, public access channel music beds from Silk Flowers’ Peter Schuette. It’s pretty lush, billowing material, full of elastic computer bass and some creative, “Risky Business” style synth leads (sounds like Jeff Mills got hold of some Tangerine Dream soundtracks, to be honest…) Schuette has the sounds down and a good attitude, but the problems in potentially disruptive songcraft – as seen through the somewhat random key changes and drop-ins – which kind of wrecks the flow of these tracks. And while that may be the point, it doesn’t necessarily make for effective house music. (http://www.allhandselectric.com)
