About Me

"An excellently varied piece of work from STEREO MINUS ONE on this label that I'm not at all familiar with. You ought to check it out though, if you're into labels like SCHEMATIC, BETA BODEGA or REPHLEX as it manages to casually mash up playful electronics, phat, dancehall style basslines (at times) and some thoroughly engaging electronic manipulation. A bargain at this price as well. Nice." (SMALLFISH RECORDS)

'Imagine the combination of a sun-warped country record playing at the wrong speed and the nauseating chime of a knackered Ice Cream van being chased by an Apache Stike helicopter, and you have almost got the opening to this delightful record. Cardiff's Machine Records are responsible for unleashing Stereo Minus One's third album, and as usual the beats are twisted, jarring and enveloped in a world of static terror and occasional shafts of warped bliss. Open My Hand is a spacious stream of glitchy treats, perhaps making more of a concession to actual 'songs' than a lot of SMO's earlier offerings - and this is no bad thing. It is safe to say that Totl is a must for fans of everything in the vein of Rephlex and Warp Records, and the title track testifies this, embodying that lovely industrial glitch dynamic that Kid 606 and the like have made their own. Oh, and you could almost dance to it. Agitate clicks along like a German freight train and 65 Days offers more menancing breaks, pehaps a noted highlight is the ambient bleepery of The Night In Ruins, recalling Matmos at their most minimal. Time & Technology shimmers like a lovely, slow burning wind farm, and with the Kraut-laced Outro you have here a challenging and utterly accessible bag of noise. Sweet.' (SOUND NATION)

'More quality budget bass'n' breaks from Cardiff's number one underground electronics imprint ... Stereo Minus One's album is a huge step on from the previous two, recorded in 2001 and 2002 respectively; the beats are less Baby's First, the noise less freeform, all packing a crunchy breakbeat-you-can't-dance-to feel. Shades of Two Lone Swordsman and Third Eye Foundation in here, and you wouldn't listen to them at 4am with The Fear either.' (BUZZ MAGAZINE)
