The enigmatic, sporadic,
eclectic, electric, the inside and the opposite, ladies
and trash outtakers, it's the Anti. Anti a whole lot,
but mostly pop. And the organization is a consortium,
and the static is preserved to now be launched. Wear
your rubber sole shoes or be grounded like Swissair.
And the threesome of the Anti Pop, Priest, Beans and
Sayid are stepping down the warping stairs, to declare
their new EP stance: "Ends Against The Middle", that's
backed by the UK plug and socket people, that maybe
caused some of this to be instrumental.

Whit the emphasis being
on 'some', considering that "Tuff
Gong" features rhyming. And a rather cocky
one at that, as we are getting them supremacy words,
that in the Anti case are intertwined like the multi
color cube. And as this is just rather short, "Splinter"
is already coming on and can be considered one of the
most polished aesthetic styles of the Anti, while the
lyrics are revisiting the contents of the first track.
With the next track then being instrumental and featuring
a dodgy Hammond organ. 'Dodgy' because it was about
time that this word appears in an urbansmarts.com review.
However, this is some jamming and it sounds like that,
and it's called "Dystopian
Disco Force".

Showing sympathy for
the abstract trade, "39/303"
has the words reappear and the track progresses in irregular
ways, giving us the feel of an blinking eye, pointing
in the direction of a confused wind. However, we have
not yet reached the peak of the bleeps, as "Pit"
is making it hard for you to vibe to it, despite
your bodily functions also functioning in a 0/1 system.
These are sounds that gain reason when they change into
"Perpendicular",
that quite possibly is the most plush, due to a piano
and complementary sound effects. What the Anti means
to us is being repeated on "Vector",
the last track, that at the same time closes a circle,
it going back to words and going back to where they
will be able to progress.

Warp and Anti Pop, that
has to be every acoustic instruments cards. That's why
it's not surprising that the Anti, that took us to the
boundaries of this music, are now tearing down the walls
to get even more left field, with us troopers, not hesitating,
climbing through the gap too.
