ehr003 Kimonophonic - Punk Rock Systemz/My Oldest Phone

Latest release from Audenshaw's single only operation Emma's House Recordings comes courtesy of Kimonophonic (aka Canadian Justin Armstrong). Justin aims to 'make tomorrow's music with yesterday's technology' and as you'd imagine it's minimal but melodic Electro pop, bleeping and blipping it's way through three minutes. 'My Oldest Phone' is a little too sparse, but despite the basic percussion, 'Punk Rock Systemz' cruises along the autobahn nicely, doing a cute impression of an early Alpinestars b-side.
City Life November 2000

Release number three features the excellent Kimonophonic whose previous outings I don't need to remind you have been featured on Earworm Records. Strictly limited to 200 only, this tasty two tracker provides the same dreamy lines as their previous emissions. 'Punk rock systemz/my oldest phone' follows a well trod road journeyed by the likes of ISAN, Plone and mentioned for the second time, Boards of Canada. Simplistic sounding, but creating a wonderful lullaby backdrop, almost ambient in feel, a smooth synth sequence, like the testcard but more Teutonic.
