Parallel Processes was released by the Warm Interface label
(FreeForm, SolarX), so it is no surprise that the album is rich with
red, hot CGD (Computer-Generated Drums) drums, found cut-ups, unusual
303 bass lines (Roland TB-303), and weird synth harmonics. Mandell's
music, however, is less abrasive than other artists in the
"drill 'n bass" field.
This is not to say that the album is simplistic - far from it, in fact.
Each song has a rich, challenging building block or anti-structure;
each song is filled with ominous melodies, CGD madness, and trash can
rhythms that challenge the drum mapmakers. But there is a peacefulness
at the center of this album, which I attribute to the interplay between
those dense rhythms and the atmospheric synth pads which hover over
every track, as in "Worried Waves" or "Untitled 57." All in all, this
is an extraordinary album from an original artist.
