Opening with the spirit of Satie in brief introductory fashion, Chris Clark states his tonal intentions for new home Warp, by debuting a showcase of electronica with attitude and purpose on
Clarence Park. Avoiding the extremes of hyperpitched, non-sensical beat displacement, while sidestepping the bland atmospherics of some so called "experimental" artists, Clark finds a middle ground that tests without aural assault or insult. Not so much an album of instant individual tracks, more the archetypal "journey",
Clarence Park constructs itself from tricks of technology, as beats are stopped, started, stretched phased and distorted, melding between snatches of ambiance and more conventional forms of melody. A timely release from Warp, that harks back to a sound many people associate with the label, echoes of James & Paradinas omnipresent; its content veering more to impressive naiïvity rather than arrogant nonchalance. An astute debut of controlled chaos, clicks, whirrs, and gnarls that fits as new blood perfectly amidst Warp's more established artist roster of Tenor, Snapper, Tortoise & co. --
