Jetski: The Radiant Radish

After years of doing album reviews for AllMusic and WCBN, I’ve become so used to doing highly descriptive album reviews, and I wish I was better at doing the sort of unhinged reviews that a site like Tiny Mixtapes would do, where it barely even seems to reference the album it’s supposed to be reviewing. That writing style would be way more appropriate for an album like this, which completely throws a cream pie in the face of logic and hoses it down with Faygo. Basically, this is hyperactive glitchcore which somehow manages to have a jazz-inspired sense of rhythm, while fitting in with the pop culture overload absurdity of much of the Hausu Mountain catalogue. Apparently this album was crafted from thousands of samples taken from royalty free sound libraries and public domain films, all triggered live using a touch responsive sampling app and a network of iPads and iPhones. There’s dialogue snippets from grainy old black and white instructional films, along with lots of very clean and professionally recorded instruments twisted and broken apart, constantly interrupted by out-of-context moments. While there’s always several things going off at once, the mix is actually clean and spacious enough that you can hear everything, making it obvious how much care was put into making this thing sound exactly the way it does. Final track “Gumshoe” indulges in cartoon sound effects, but dumps them into an ambient lounge jazz nightmare rather than a gofy mock theme song. Much of this album is a barrage of extreme juxtapositions between the discordant and the comfortable/familiar, and at least for this brain-scrambled listener, it plugs right into the circuit, and it’s fun as hell.
