Another Life, chameleonic as it is demonic, aggregates its influences and kaleidoscopes them into earworming shards of electronic puncta, a diabolical mimesis whose loathsome grin belies its functionality as dance music.

Amnesia Scanner just did a fucking Arial Assault on my earlobes and it was FUCKING AWESOME.
Easily the best Deconstructed Club album I've heard
Just soulless club or reggaeton music with overblown sound production that may fool some people into thinking there is more to this than there really is.
