A most excellent follow-up to the debut album on the same label released in 2006. There is a delightful
crispiness to both sounds and production, not forgetting the rhythms making it all progressing nicely. That
is manifested as the track numbers increase their sequential value. Tiny is one example as good as any
other. I strongly suggest that you investigate Platform and his Minimal Resource Manipulation, because if
you like your beats complex and crisp youÆre in for a treat. It comes highly recommended!

Having really enjoyed the first self-titled Platform CD last year, it's with great pleasure that I can offer you
the second installment from the excellent MRM label. Forming a natural and really well balanced follow-up,
this release surfs a line somewhere between classic electronica and a more minimalist blend of sounds
which is somewhat akin to Raster Noton and, maybe, 12k. Deep, rhythmic tracks that don't rely on being
deliberately awkward, instead allowing the pieces to flow and work as they should with a deft touch. You'll
find melodies and cleverly structured textures playing off against clicks, glitches and, at times, surprisingly
fat beats. All of this is tempered by a sense of minimalism that's appealing and not too introspective, rather
it involves you as a listener and keeps you hooked. A splendid and varied blend of electronic styles that
comes highly recommended.

Here is a Self titled 11 track set from Platform which includes: some highly melodious beat led
experimental styled electronic that's jamming up hardrives from here to Tokyo and back. If I'd compare
them to anyone it would be the outpourings of labels like Neo Ouija and it's ilk.
