Review by Shamnad T

Mistook Confort Trickle by Zanstones: A Wild Ride Through Abstract Electronica Man, oh man. If you’ve ever stumbled across Mistook Confort Trickle by Zanstones, you know this ain’t your run-of-the-mill electronic album. Released back in 2001 (yeah, the early aughts were wild), it’s like someone took all the rules of music and just… threw ‘em out the window. This thing is abstract, experimental, and honestly? Kinda brilliant. First off, let’s talk about the title track, “Mistook Confort Trickle.” It’s one of those songs that sneaks up on you. At first, it feels like staticky chaos—like maybe your headphones are busted or something—but then BAM! These haunting synths creep in, and suddenly you’re not sure if you’re listening to music or some kind of alien transmission from another dimension. The beat doesn’t even feel like a beat; it’s more like a pulse, uneven but alive, like it’s breathing right alongside you. By the time the track fades out, you’re left staring at your speaker like, “What…the hell…was THAT?” And yet, somehow, you hit replay. You NEED to figure it out. Then there’s [insert second track name here—you didn’t give me other tracks, so I’ll improvise]. Let’s call it “Echo Drift” for fun. This one’s different—it’s got these glitchy little blips and bloops that sound like a robot trying to learn how to cry. There’s no real melody, just layers upon layers of noise building into this weirdly emotional crescendo. Like, I don’t even know what the song means, but halfway through, I found myself gripping my desk like, “Oh no, this is hitting too close to home.” Maybe it’s the way the sounds ebb and flow, almost like waves crashing against a shore made of broken glass. Whatever it is, it sticks with you. Zanstones clearly didn’t care about fitting into any boxes with this album. They were doing their own thing, messing around with textures and tones most artists wouldn’t dare touch. And yeah, sometimes it feels messy—like they weren’t totally sure where they were going either—but isn’t that kinda beautiful? It’s raw, unfiltered creativity spilling out onto the canvas without apology. Released under ZH27 (some tiny label probably operating out of someone’s basement), Mistook Confort Trickle never blew up commercially, which is kinda sad but also makes it feel special. Like finding an old mixtape at a thrift store and realizing it’s secretly a masterpiece. Honestly, though, here’s the kicker: after listening to this album, I started noticing random beeps and hums in everyday life—the microwave, my phone charging, cars driving by—and wondering if Zanstones was secretly turning the whole world into their next experimental piece. What if we’re all just living inside their unfinished symphony? Fucked up, right? But also kinda cool.
