REVIEWS
"Big Siti Ookestra of course you know as Big City Orchestra.
They have been underground before the word existed. Releasing
still, after all these years, CDs, CDRs and cassettes (for some
reason there was never much on vinyl by them), in which they poke
fun with popmusic (in 'Beatlerape'), radioplays and industrial
music. Most of their CDs have a bunch of 'real' tracks and a bunch
of sounds freely to be used by anyone, the 'Big City Orchestra
Sound Effects Library'. Here volume 11 already. Primarily Big
City Orchestra is project by one dAS and Robo, plus guest players.
From these 47 tracks, six are songs and 41 are sound effects.
These sound effects are mainly spoken word lifted from radio and
tv. I must say I rather prefer the non spoken word sound effects
to use. The six tracks are lengthy excursions in industrialized
rhythms, loaded with dark edged sounds of synths. Every inch of
the sound is filled with something, a beat, noise and more beat
and noise. Although this is not a bad release at all, I must say
that I had hopes to see some more development for Big City Orchestra
which would maybe be about time now. The way it sounds here, is
what we know from from the earlier works too. It would be nice
to see how they could try and change industrial music..."
