Title: April 2003 Reviews by LMNOP
Review: Entropic Advance is the duo of Wesley Davis and Casey Jones. The two approach electronic composition from a unique perspective (and that's saying a lot...considering how many electronic artists out there do not!). Even the rhythms used in the music are obtuse and peculiar (the duo refers to this as "click & cut rhythms"). Monkey With a Gun is a heady and unexpected experience...as Davis and Jones combine spooky ambient sounds with samples and obtuse technology. The overall effect is quite dream-like and foreign. There are few familiar sounds and ideas to latch onto...and therein lies the beauty of these modern compositions. This lengthy disc (clocking in at 68:59) is mentally challenging...and highly entertaining. We can't describe tunes like "Charisma," "Copper Glow," and "Afraid to Change"...but we know when something pushes our buttons the right way. Excellent stuff. Recommended.monkey with a gun
