Dother is a Polish project. Quite good and also quite unknown. Honestly - a shame, because it's attentionworthy, to say the least. I shall treat this album as a whole, even though it's not my regular approach. Mainly for two reasons: firstly - it's only 33 minutes long, secondly - the contruction and characteristics of single tracks are very similar.
We have a slow introduction to the track, tuning the listener's ear to that what is to be expected, only to reach it's full and final phase. This is nothing else but industrial mixed with EBM and other electronic genres. No use waiting for vocals, and I'm glad about that. I have a hunch that it would ruin everything. Dother is great mixing material. The beat-and-sample count in every track is absolutely amazing. Because of that, the album isn't boring - on the contrary - it doesn't leave too much time to think about what we're listening to - it changes rapidly. I suspect that Dother would cope with being played on the dancefloor - the music is simple and easy on the listener. Most importantly, it's very rhythmical. A mighty bass takes care of the rhythm, while movie samples amplify the atmosphere. Rather irrelevant quotes become an inherent part of music, they don't function separately though. Did I already say that Dother would cope with being played on the dancefloor? Probably, but I'll repeat it so everyone responsible for choosing the music for the people gives the project at least a chance. I personally like to play this CD from time to time, just because its rhythm doesn't allow the listener's body to relax too much.
Dother is worth your precious listening time, it's worth playing and mixing. I am sure it's worth learning.
Tracklist:
1. Dother - Threshing-machine
2. Dother - Dying city
3. Dother - Survival
4. Dother - Nightmare returns
5. Dother - Evolution
6. Dother - Psycho (bonus track - mv remix)
