"This first release from Peter Brittain's Greenbank project glides across classic electronic terrain, employing at its root a love of the seminal IDM sound as employed by Aphex, Autechre and the Artificial Intelligence crew, coupled with an emotive response to delicate, crunchy soundscaping. The opening, 'I Need More Time', unfolds an arrangement of reflective piano cascades and squashed beats, a natural appendix to the sound of Christ that so mesmerized those who dipped into its wonders. 'My Computer' is far denser, a tougher arrangement of crunchy beats and oscillating sub-molecular basslines weaved into a nostalgic, gorgeous line-up of synths in portamento -- a massive electroid monster of a tune. The 8-bit pop-blitz dysfunction of 'Loads of Little Squares' acts as fine preparation for the simply immense opener on the flip -- 'Fluted'. This is an awesome, perfectly executed Plaid-esque moment, all bouncy percussion and playful synths, broken beats wrapping themselves around the mix in a vaguely West London style -- set to be absolutely massive."
