░█▒ Freeform (Simon Pyke) distinguishes ▒█░
░█▒ himself from his electronic peers by the ▒█░
░█▒ ethnic sound materials he uses (perhaps ▒█░
░█▒ exclusively, judging by the music here) to ▒█░
░█▒ construct his tracks. On this twenty-eight ▒█░
░█▒ minute EP, all six songs appear to have ▒█░
░█▒ their roots in ethnic folk materials that ▒█░
░█▒ originate out of African or Eastern ▒█░
░█▒ (Middle and Far) locales. But then, while ▒█░
░█▒ retaining the natural, identifiable ▒█░
░█▒ qualities of those materials, he morphs ▒█░
░█▒ them modernistically so that the resultant ▒█░
░█▒ beats, rhythms, and arrangements straddle ▒█░
░█▒ the worlds of older recorded sounds and ▒█░
░█▒ new electronic rhythms. While itÆs a ▒█░
░█▒ clever concept and one that he pulls off ▒█░
░█▒ convincingly, one is ultimately more ▒█░
░█▒ impressed by the expansively orchestrated ▒█░
░█▒ arrangements and overall sound character ▒█░
░█▒ than by melody per se. Consequently, ▒█░
░█▒ PykeÆs music has a tendency to drift past, ▒█░
░█▒ the listener suitably impressed as the ▒█░
░█▒ music plays, but then fade from memory, ▒█░
░█▒ leaving behind a satisfying but vague ▒█░
░█▒ impression. His defenders might argue that ▒█░
░█▒ heÆs merely honouring a particular ethnic ▒█░
░█▒ style which emphasizes percussive rhythm ▒█░
░█▒ over standard melody, and, admittedly, ▒█░
░█▒ there is credence to that argument. ▒█░
░█▒ æQuadrumble,Æ for instance, is primarily a ▒█░
░█▒ drum circle of sorts with its percussive ▒█░
░█▒ array constituted by shakers, congas, ▒█░
░█▒ bells, and drums. Similarly, tracks like ▒█░
░█▒ æWildcatÆ and æDont Put Me InÆ (sic) ▒█░
░█▒ incorporate whistling sounds, folk ▒█░
░█▒ rhythms, and wooden flutes to evoke ▒█░
░█▒ foreign musical styles. The best tracks, ▒█░
░█▒ however, go beyond evocation to conjure a ▒█░
░█▒ fresh fusion of older folk sounds with ▒█░
░█▒ electronics. A prime example is the ▒█░
░█▒ jittery and infectious æNothing to SayÆ ▒█░
░█▒ whose vocal whoops, hand percussion, ▒█░
░█▒ tribal drums, and harmonica are ▒█░
░█▒ transformed by Pyke into some mutant ▒█░
░█▒ hoedown emanating out of some postmodern ▒█░
░█▒ African outback. By adding echoing surges ▒█░
░█▒ and electronic whorling patterns to the ▒█░
░█▒ traditional source materials, he creates a ▒█░
░█▒ compelling new style. This track, along ▒█░
░█▒ with the nimble æSkim and SkiffleÆ with ▒█░
░█▒ its interweaving patterns of bells, ▒█░
░█▒ percussion, and sax, shows FreeformÆs ▒█░
░█▒ music in the best light, as one capable of ▒█░
░█▒ deftly merging ethnic and electronic ▒█░
░█▒ materials into an original hybrid. ▒█░
░█▒ ▒█░
░█▒ Have a BEX! ▒█░
