Ontagon - Forgetful EP [post-digital]

I don't really get how this netlabel works but I guess they don't care - which seems to fit with the sound as well. This EP starts with two weird tracks somewhere between ambient and IDM. It goes on with some more relaxt, nice, soft breakbeats till it flows into a sound that is something of everything: Some oriental influences here ("180 degrees"), some pop there ("forget to remember"). Sometimes it gets melancholic, but even though it combines all these different elements it never turns kitschy. At the end they even serve some Hiphop - amazingly good one ("grandfather clock") - and something to laugh at ("rain on my parade"). Great stuff that is!

Official text:
this 7-song ep is a varied and strange journey of diverse electronic songs. from the glittery idm synth intro to the dark industrial middle-eastern 180 degrees, this ep defies categorization. originally released on the ontagon.com site in january of 2005, its rerelease on post-digital in january 2006 will bring it to new listeners.
