Manic Shooter
Dog Master Teleportation
Upstairs 006
CD-R
£8.99
Edition of 200 copies CD-R on Daniel Lopatin aka Oneohtrix Point Never’s own label. Dog Master Teleportation – aka DMT – presents music reformulated and overdubbed by a quartet of players, including KGB Man (aka Daniel Lopatin), Shaun Trujillo, J. Glennon and P. Giordano. The music is minimal, with translucent electro-stylings that feel like the extracted DNA of lush synth soundtracks isolated and made sidereal using extreme compositional process. All the recordings pre-date the OPN LPs and they cover a fairly wide spectrum, from punked 20th century avant garde moves to Industrial-scale electro confusion. “Manic Shooter's DMT is sonic weird hieroglyphs from combination Taos, New Mexico and Long Island; the hybrid of which mirrors the effect... bent clues will set you on a path while others are meant to deceive you. Powerlines whisper instructions in a non gendered voice. Mystical Hasid rapper vaporizedendlessly in interlocking dimensional mechanism. Remember this was during the initial Bush era, pre-dating 911 and thus Junior's eyeballs hadn't yet been upgraded to format terrestrial. Mirror plates in the eye cavity is how they found terrorists. Shooter was the first to command green missle control, similar to a Tartan warrior he refracted the beams himself and thus took the problem into his own hands. DMT is an in and out enhancement of this frightening time, as if the lingering confusion of a post-Inside Edition childhood had naturally spawned the devastated political mis-en-scene, building up to the 911 simulation telecast we witnessed while en route to Yusef Lateef's class when we got word of the attacks. This is also a historic document containing some of the first ever KGB MAN overdubs, as well as marking the first time in RIAA history that anyone has ever exclusively fucked with Prince of Darkness and Alphaville on a sampling level, but beyond recognition, musique concret style, plus a touch of cartoon Skinny Puppy meets Mike Patton isolated in a hotel room with a portastudio while on tour with Bungle in '97 vibes. I have recommended Trujillo to be committed to the Material Eye Institute for dog master evaluation. Enjoy it while you can and as Lou said, "watch out for worlds behind you." – DL.
