Reptilicus
is an electronica group from Iceland, where
Hafler Trio
's
Andrew McKenzie
also lives, and the two groups hooked up for a number of releases in the mid-1990s. The collaborative release
Designer Time
was from 1994, and
McKenzie
produced
' 1995 release,
O
, as well as remixing two tracks from that release for a remix CD in 1996. The electronica influences are manifested in the techno-like rhythm loops that permeate this album. There is a vocal sample in a repeated fast rhythm that is a central part of both
"Anamorphosis"
and
"Theolepsy,"
providing the album with a strong unifying element. There are also three rhythm loops that permeate the final ten minutes, coexisting with a feedback drone more akin to
the Hafler Trio
's previous releases. The various vocal loops are the more obvious
Hafler
touches, from the child-like distortions in
"Wave a Dead Chicken"
to the choral loop in
"Anamorphosis."
Overall, the techno elements make this one of the more aggressive
releases, the closest the group gets to the dance and electronica traditions of the 1990s, and fairly distant from the ambient sounds which have become their trademark. ~ Caleb Deupree
