简介

V/Vm专辑介绍:by John BushThis, the &quiet one& (relatively speaking) of a pair of CDs titled and packaged identically (the differentiator being separate color schemes), shows that James Kirby and friends aren't just arch electronic pranksters; in fact, they can produce &serious& music as well as any serious electronic musician out there. A collection of 12 pieces, the gold edition of Sometimes, Good Things Happen forswears the Stock, Aitken & Waterman samples in favor of a succession of sounds: isolationist ring-modulator ambience, analogue electronics experimentation, and a few mildly grating noise pieces. The album begins with a few tracks reminiscent of deep-space composers like Robert Rich or Lustmord, but then detours into excellent digital paranoia (&Some Things Look Better Baby,& &Rolling Like Thunder Under the Covers,& &I'm Convinced We Can Make It&) that outdoes electronic soundtracker Wendy Carlos at her own game (circa 1982's Tron). The brief avalanche of ping-pong echoes on &Half Inside, Half Outside& is another brilliant moment, ably proving the depth of Kirby's production finesse -- if it wasn't clear before. It definitely makes for an easier listen than the noise-driven blue edition of Sometimes, Good Things Happen.
