Weekly mp3 #56: Duckett - Stock Up On Antibiotics

A bit of softish ambientish technoish stuff from Mind Net the free sublabel of UK techno label Mind Tours.

A soft repeating riff almost sounds like guitar .. or Boards of Canada. I dunno what's going on. Scratchy textures cruise about and all of a sudden a surprisingly fast kick drum pattern cranks up the forward momentum. Little shakers and percussive bits come sneaking in and out. Somehow it adds up to almost a samba feel on a track that's otherwise super washed out and spacious. Half-way through the track actually changes (oh shit!) and it's pretty exciting. Gosh.

No idea who Duckett is, although his discogs entry suggests he's released a few tracks on other UK-based tech-ish labels. The rest of the free EP this tracks from is a bit more generic and very much of its time (2005).
