masterpiece.......2004-07-24

this album is great, it's some downbeat glitch-hop, very smooth, technical, and groundbreaking idm. it has a lot of instrumentation, which makes it different from most idm, kinda like savath & savalas with the tricky glitch type beats. if you like autechre, boards of canada, prefuse 73/savath & savalas, ect. this album will not dissapoint. a must have for any idm fanatic.

really I gave it 3.5 stars.......2004-07-02

This is Ed Ma's first album and has drawn comparsions with the work of Prefuse 73. In my mind that's rather misleading but if we keep with this comparions "Crying over pros" is more like "Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives" than 2003's "Extinguised" albums. It has also drawn some comparisons to the work of Cex (check the Wire, 245).

The album could be described as glitch-hop. Underneath the tunes is a definite hip hop beat but one which twist in turns in some interesting directions (ie. the hop). Over the top there's nice guitar prolifitating throughout, some outakes from a supermarket purchase, other strings (violins possibly?) all cut up like (ie. the glitch). The production is really tight and I found this quiet an emotional record; the arrangements are melodic and senitmental.

Favourite tracks include Laundry, Dex and Ants. It's a solid first album from Ed Ma and suggests good things to come. Recommended.

Nice coffeeshop music!!.......2004-06-18

Heard this album in my favourite coffeeshop the other day, and it made the night for me. Went to the music store straight away, but they didn't have the CD in store. Waiting for it at the moment... It's a nice one.
