Its Too Fucking Real

It’s too fucking real

Don’t you just hate when unbridled omniscience over all things is thrust upon you and you’re forced to reckon with the emptiness of the universe?

I do.

It fuckin’ sucks.

Everyone at UCincy! Be there or Be square!!!

Torn Light’s outta town, which fuckin’ sucks, but now we’ve got FEEL IT!

Amon Tobin’s “Chaos Theory” is a gas album and no one can tell me different.

It’s the soundtrack to the first Splinter Cell, for those who don’t know about it. For people who don’t know what that is, it’s the Tom Clancy equivalent to all of Kojima’s Solid Snake hijinks and wacky adventures.

It’s a really smooth, dark tone throughout the whole album’s run (as an espionage soundtrack should be), and leans heavily into IDM elements. Chopped drum breaks, lots of floaty delays and reverb in the mix, and some stellar guitar work that really serves the vibe well. Think about a lot of Aphex Twin’s sensibilities, and you’ve got an I.ntelligent D.ance M.usic track. Guitar’s heavily compressed, but in a studio mastering way, not in a “This .mp4 file has been downloaded onto my computer since 2005” way.

Which is really impressive, given that the album was released by Amon in 2005. Good on him.

Here’s the link to it if you wanna give it a listen:

Couldn’t find it in the audio post tab. Stupid audio post tab…
