Some time ago I’ve read about Essence of Mind and there was a comment written by somebody who mentioned "broken" English vocal... So I am waiting for a comment about Helalyn Flowers, as the vocalist squeezes out of herself some sort of angular words... But after all, it’s a specific music...
The EP called Plaestik, promoting the first record of Helalyn Flowers (A Voluntary Coincidence) is a remix-full virtual journey towards the headquarters... You can feel its atmosphere from the first electronic sounds, which loop ma king a mechanical sounding echo. The mechanical voice of the singer, mentioned above, fills up the whole and the journey moves on. Personally, I associate this vision with an old educational cartoon movie "Było sobie życie" ("Once Upon A Time… Life"), only instead of a human body I move along unidentified space of data, with currents of digits floating around me...
With the fourth track we start to get a feeling that something is wrong. The files disperse, and I’m left there confused. The music sounds as if it was coming from nowhere. The remix "E-Race Generation" by Angelspit leads me into a heartless, painfully clinical mechanics and, devoid of any signs of humaness, utterly dead area. Blurred voices being an effect of Sthilmann's work fall into my ears from outside the corner, but even them can’t pull me out of the world of soulless transpositions. Scarcely the remix of Digital Blood (by Headscan) shows some humaness, it starts to touch me, embrace me,... bind me, block me... Rigid machineries only inflicts damage to take blood... It appears that its their propulsion. Feels like Matrix. I fall asleep.
I woke up In the middle of a way functioning myself as a data storage machine. Merely my consciousness remained. Not for long, I suppose. Besides the fact that I used to be a full-fledged man, I remember nothing. I must go further, as some familiar music from speakers tells me to. And again, it spins round with racking sounds... Oh, please, reset me!
Plaestic is an EP having both the potential and good electronic drive, but that ends with what was fully created by the band, that is, the third track. Soulless remixes unfortunately depict an artificial attempt to make this minialbum a complete work, which rebounds upon the listener. I am aware that this is electronic music, however, one must distinguish between mechanics and electronics. If a living creature once gets frightened with the inanimate sounds, they won’t come back into the world of transposition, in which one becomes just an object, in other words – you’ll gonna hear it once and put it back to get dusty, well this is surely far away from what the art of music is about.
