Struggle & Emerge

by Lakker

supported by

Rev Mannix When I first tried this, it was playing through someone's phone speaker... It made me want to stamp on it to make it quiet, but when I had this spinning in the correct format on a turntable and big speakers it was awe inspiring. Amazing piece of work, highly recommended. Favorite track: Emergo.

aseek it just makes sense

Nic Brown I've heard some bruising techno in my time, but "Struggle & Emerge", commissioned by the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision to examine the relationship between the Dutch and water (no, me neither) has certainly enabled Lakker to vent the noisier parts of their spleen. Assembled from a large variety of field recordings, tracks range from the machine gun beats of "Maeslantkering Gating" which could terrify a Perc fan to the variety of brain-strafing ambience Shapednoise specialise in. Tell you what though, it's as addictively listenable as anything else they've ever released. Favorite track: Maeslantkering Gating.

This album feels like the soundtrack for an exploration of a jungle planet full of sentient plants and insectoid aliens. Objekt's use of reverb and negative space creates the sense that sounds are whizzing past you, speeding towards you, and being flung up into space. josh epps
