15 - Kool Aid River

15/10

I have no idea whatsoever how I originally came across this wonderful song, but I know that the first time I listened to it I was hooked. Kool Aid River is from Secret Mommy's Plays album, which was released in 2007.

This is break-beat like I have seen nowhere else. The lyrics are incomprehensible at times, but they are tangential to the rest of the song, which is bleeps, buzzes, and other special effects. Kool Aid River is robustly electronic, varyingly repetitive, and creates an abstract minimalistic tune or rhythm, all while keeping energetic and creative.
