Control Group: Demo
- Slow
- Empath
- You Cause as Much Sorrow
- Relative
Control Group is new project by Ty Glazar from Seattle. From the muddiness of
the mixdown, it is obvious that this demo was recorded in a bedroom studio, far
from professional. This is, however, the first time Ty has ever submitted music
for review, so it should be expected that the music is a little rough around
the edges. Musically, the tracks are collections of sampled guitars,
percussion, and electronics with effected, yet still very rock style, vocals
over the top. In places the music reminds me of Acumen Nation or 16 Volt with
drawn out electronic prologues that are slowly overtaken by the sampled guitars
but remain in place throughout the remainder of the tracks. Several tracks also
use electronic piano in places that serve as a good juxtaposition to the
sequenced loops and vocal stanzas. Overall Control Group has a firm grip on
both the technical and compositional portions of the music. Now, if Ty works a
little bit more on the production, he will have a quality demo that he can shop
to interested labels.
