THE SUMMER OF FLUX – Radio Anthems for the Newly Disenfranchised, Architects + Heroes

Radio Anthems for the Newly Disenfranchised is an album that defies easy categorization. Its nine instrumental tracks slip between Eno-esque electronic blurps, post-rock, jazz, and abstract textural exploration, at times sounding like Boards of Canada, at times like Prefuse 73 or something from similarly minded Warp artists.

The album opens with “Something”, one of the more straightforward tracks on the album, its piano chords gently easing you in, at times sounding like an OK Computer interlude. “Now All is Ever” ups the experimentalism with a nervously glitchy sampled guitar alternating between two chords as ominous rumbles are brought up in the mix, punctuated occasionally by high pitched whirring insect noise sounding like David Lynch’s sound design. “Love letter to Oklahoma (Part 2)” dips nearly into Daft Punk territory, minus the dance, sounding less like a love letter and more like the kind of thing Goblin would play as a Dario Argento heroine snuck around some hidden passageway. Of course, not everything is monstrous – some tracks are beautiful jazz numbers, and piano lines about, but perhaps it’s no coincidence that things close out on a slightly edgy note with “Magical Dracula Powers,” reminiscent of the kinds of track Doseone might rap over.
