Title: Spectrum of Distraction
Artist: Baker, Aidan
Label: Robotic Empire
Product Type: COMPACT DISCS
UPC: 616892012344
Genre: Ambient

2012 two CD release from the Canadian experimental artist. Specifically designed to be played on shuffle and yield a completely unique experience each time, Aidan Baker's audacious monsterpiece the Spectrum of Distraction takes a nod from Zappa's technique of xenochrony and runs it though the digital age via the shuffle aspect of CD and MP3 players. 96 tracks spanning two discs make for an incredibly varied landscape on each listen; with pieces ranging from just a few seconds to over seven minutes, there is no shortage of diversity. Hallucinatory dreamscapes weave into frantic noise into dubby passages into chilled-out Jazz into Psychedelic grooves into an oppressive industrial crunch into a Hip-Hop Bop into almighty sludge dirges and almost everything else the kitchen sink offers.
