"Sometimes collaborations work so well you think "this should just be a full time project from now on", and that was the impression i was left with after a few listens to "Poisoned Awakening of Illumination in Dirty Crystals"...an international mail collab between White Widow (Philippines) and Arizona visual/sound artist THE IDE OF EARTH (who is also responsible for the stunning collage work on this and the Francesco Terrini tape, which go together so well and easily solidify the appeal of owning both of these tapes).
While all the recognizable elements of WW's now familiar approach can be found here, there are obvious noticeable differences brought to the mix by PKWST that compliments their sound quite well.
A lot is happening right off the bat, but it retains an ethereal almost playful quality that has a strangely lighthearted feel in spite of all the abrasive clatter and filthy scrape, making for a unique and bewildering listening experience of some very imaginative outsider noise that will leave you scratching your head in the best way possible."
