Porn Sword Tobacco
New exclusive Olympic heights
City Centre Offices
An ambient journey that evokes Ulrich Schnauss' layered approach, Boards of Canada's peculiar brand of electronic music, and DJ Shadow's slower work, "New exclusive Olympic heights" is an interesting, compelling, and ultimately flourishing piece of music; a soundtrack where hope exists, but has lost its way, and events are explored with the pace and fluidity of a small brook. There is a childlike innocence threaded into the music, though this approach is tempered with the burden of experience, and, in due course, Porn Sword Tobacco's newest effort comes to feel like a daydream or a series of remembrances, all loosely linked with a calm present – an empty field, the noise of a stream and the light cargo it carries along its weak current. If I was a film director, significant sections of "New exclusive Olympic heights" would find their way into the display of moving pictures.
