Norman Fairbanks – American Case Study [tube106]
California Über Alles
«Please welcome again Mr. Fairbanks from Los Angeles, California, with this new collection of tracks, which he appropriately titled ‘American Case Study’.
Norman has been steadily putting out high quality releases for a couple of years at least, officially releasing most of them through his own website. In this present case, we made a selection out of a couple of his latest works, rounding up roughly an hour of Fairbanks’ tunes. ‘American Case Study’ helps us to explore an unusual side of Norman’s creations, namely the ambient/spoken word approach. ‘Element One’ through ‘Element Five’ gathers some speeches from whatever – including the late Allen Ginsberg – and serves them with some of Norman’s trademark spacious beats and drones. The rest of the album rests on the usual high quality of minimal techno and IDM, on healthy doses for good measure.
To put it simply, Norman Fairbanks’ music is an amalgam of contemporary American culture, synthesized in small packets of aural pleasure. Enjoy!»
