Keef Baker - Pen fifteen, Light city
Mighty subbass drones, driving, energetic beats, wonderful piano lines, atmospheric keyboards, doomy guitars, occasional vocal work - pen fifteen is another journey into keef baker's world, where unequal musical styles like trip hop, electronica and even metal sometimes merge within a single note - just check out what starts as a distorted guitar and ends as click'n'cut in 'dead end'. Instead of 'eclecticism' a logical extrapolation of varied influences is displayed, whether it is post-rock, intelligent dance music, dub... in the end they become one style that can only be called Keef Baker.


11 songs of melodic harshness - loud and powerful even in their quietest moments. Expect your expectations to be confounded! "this is the voice of light city..." - intended to be listened to without interference or pauses - a trip into clublife that keeps you moving for more than an hour. An astounding mix with increasing and decreasing speed, ranging from dubstep to techno to drum and bass to breakcore and back. This is Keef as he sounds while performing live - a great addition to a phantastic album.
And remember: "the state loves you!" 2cd releases by hymen records on February 2009.
