Fragment
Dots reviewed by Carnival_of_soles
Here's is the review as it was posted to the ambient
list June 5th, 2001:
Having just purchased Tetsu Inoue's Fragment Dots, actually rescued
it from Borders, I am inspired to review this for those who haven't
ventured to yet.
I wasn't going to buy it since I had already got Psycho-Acoustic and
disliked it VERY, VERY much. I picked it up, but decided against the
risk and replaced it on the rack. As I turned, a small voice called
out "Sissy!". I looked around but few people were in the store and
nobody was anyways near me. I looked back down and the CD, which I
had replaced near the back of the rack, was in the front (again).
So I decided that resistance was futile and bought it.
I decided that the best time to listen was when I was shaving since
my boredom is titanic then. I put on the disk and listened, I mean
shaved.
Now I must tell you that I had composed a long, meandering review
full of descriptions, similes and metaphors but something didn't feel
right. I realized that such a review was better suited for his FAX
and earlier stuff: long droning, wordy passages interspersed with
little asides and comments. Totally inappropriate for this music,
to be sure!
So, in the spirit of his current music, I pasted the entire review
onto a mirror and dropped it from a second story window. Running downstairs,
I rescued several shards that had something comprehensible and here
they are:
Shard 1. My disk is wonderful, deep ambience but skips like the devil
itself.
Shard 2. His attention span seems to have shortened.
Shard 3. I wonder what one big dot would have sounded like. Or have
we already heard that before?

Editorial Aside:
I hope you've enjoyed this foolishness, and if not, simply delete
and forget. If it wasn't funny, it should be ignored...
