The title of the Autodigest CD really sets me off: wouldn’t it be great to have all music ever recorded on one CD? “Autodigest is a simulation of processes of cultural implosion. As such, it has no birth date nor does it have particular geographical references”. So who is it? We are not told. Some of the tracks sound a bit as expected: speed up sound, trying to get as much music in just a few seconds. Music is there, but it’s highly filtered and sounds like a far away cry of what was once music. But there are also tracks which sound entirely different: low hum, almost contemplative, maybe also without any bearing to music, but seemingely also not derived from music. Which makes this into quite a strange CD. At times of course the music is quite noise oriented, but that is hardly any surprise, with all the sped up musics, but it’s quite a captivating release. It’s impossible to see this without the title in mind and this makes it into a conceptual almost poetic release.<\/p>\n
