Studio ep-debut by Danish one-man electronic project Rangleklods consisting of Esben Nørskov Andersen. The EP was originally released on CD via independent label Sound Of Copenhagen (founded by the two Danish DJs Kjeld Tolstrup and Le Gammeltoft) and later distributed via bandcamp.
Although, this first release only contains three compositions, it's quite a varied 'collection', basically showcasing what Rangleklods is all about. It appears as influenced by idm, drum n bass as you know it from Aphex Twin and then with influence from house, big beat, and 'beats' in general - music with an electronic dance appeal - and some indietronica where rock blends with the electronic genre. I hear bonds to other Danish artists such as Veto and Trentemøller, but also with influence from LCD Soundsystem, Aphex Twin and Fatboy Slim.
Best song here is the end-track "Behaviour", which also sounds like a fine mix of Veto and Aphex Twin.
