Alright, let’s dive into Comedy Dicryliums Loonatek Mix by The Wee DJs. This thing is like a time capsule from 2005, straight outta the UK with that raw electronic vibe. It’s breakbeat and electro all mashed up together—kinda chaotic but in the best way possible. Released on Digital Distortions, this album feels like someone took a bunch of neon lights, threw ‘em in a blender, and hit "puree." You know what I mean?
The track that sticks with me most is obviously “Comedy (Dicrylium's Loonatek Mix).” Man, it’s wild. The beat hits you right away, like BAM—it doesn’t even ask for permission. There’s this weird little synth line that keeps popping up, almost teasing you, y’know? Like, "Hey, pay attention to me!" And then before you can get too comfy, the bassline just flips everything upside down. It’s playful but also kinda unhinged, which makes it super memorable. I couldn’t tell ya if I love it or if it stresses me out a tiny bit, but either way, it gets stuck in your head.
Another banger on here—I think it’s called “Loonatronix” or something like that—just slaps so hard. It’s got this robotic voice cutting through the mix, repeating some nonsense phrase over and over. Honestly, it shouldn’t work, but somehow it does. It’s like being chased by a malfunctioning AI through a dark alleyway while lasers shoot past your ears. Weird visual, yeah, but trust me, it fits. Every time I hear it, I wanna grab my headphones and go run laps around the block. Pure energy.
This whole album reminds me how experimental electronic music used to be back then. People weren’t afraid to just throw stuff at the wall and see what stuck. These days, everything feels so polished and safe. But not this. Nope. This is messy, loud, and unapologetically itself.
Here’s the kicker though—listening to it now, I realized something kinda funny. If aliens ever landed on Earth and asked us humans to explain breakbeat, I’d probably hand them this album. Not sure if they’d understand us better or just leave faster. Either way, mission accomplished, right?
