Another Monotonik DJ-mix wanders brightly your way, and this time it’s from long-time Portugese Mono associate, Rents, who’s mixed up this rather lovely 73-minute cut-up, featuring everything from the obvious but gorgeous Aphex remixes and Kreidler to the inspired (Snooze – “Your Consciousness Goes Bip” – a forgotten classic, for one!) With environmental effects cleverly mixed in, and real-time tracklisting and graphics on the streaming version, courtesy of Realplayer G2, this is overall officially a ‘good thing’ – listen at once!
