Solenoid is a solo beat beased project out of Portland with a handful of demos,
each is handmade and released throughout Oregon. Unlike the material usually
composed by Solenoid's David Chandler, this demo is pattern based and
sequenced. Like most Techno, it uses the standard 4/4 beats per measure. It is
obvious that David is used to more free form musical composition because this
music is devoid of life and inspiration. 'Kaiserv' and 'TimeF', however, are
quite atypical and innovative and stand out from the rest of the material. Each
track uses a catchy percussion line along with a fluid melody that interplay
well with each other. Oddly, unlike most Techno, there is no bassline to speak
of. The percussion is what drives the direction of the track. Obviously
Solenoid needs to spend a little more time in the studio getting the grasp of
the basics of structure based electronic composition, but if the two hilighted
tracks of this demo are any indication, it shouldn't be long before Solenoid
starts making a name for itself in the local scene.
