Double vinyl LP pressing. 2013 release from electronic music pioneer Mike Paradinas AKA Chewed Corners was written in the same period as Paradinas's recent Heterotic project (a collaboration with his wife Lara Rix-Martin and Warp's singer/songwriter Gravenhurst) while he was home alone. He says he intended the compositions 'to evoke drama and emotion,' and while the music was made with no conscious influences, after listening back Paradinas says Kuedo, Aphex Twin, Chicago Footwork, Art of Noise, Orbital, Japan and Rustie must all have had an effect. Chewed Corners sidesteps affiliations to any genre; instead it's a suite of 14 retro-futurist tracks, created with a lush, analog-sounding palette. It's a gentle ride that finds a way to breathe light and joy into the framework. In other words, it's classic ¦-Ziq.
