Sweetface – Music For Being (2020)

August 16, 2021

Music For Being is a lengthy, intense trip that I checked out off the back of the fantastic Sweetface EP, Mighty Atom. Ranging from atmospheric ambient tracks, beatwork akin to the more spaced-out Scorn output, and harsh explosions of power electronics, Music For Being is a mixed bag. I suppose its part of the fun, not knowing where its going to turn next, but I also can’t help but shake the feeling that the record is a little directionless and inconsistent. Individually, all the parts are sound. As a whole however, I’m unsure if it works.
