Nootropic Desires by nUmt (July 12, 2011)
Numt is a swampy, thumping industrial bed of seaweed. Numt is…generally dark, but showcases a variety of (surprisingly) quirky samples and synth parts, all in an unexpected, syncopated manner. From tracks like “Bog/Tar/Swamp” which feature their own brand of dark, determined pop, to “Liasion” which proves to be even more melancholy, Numt features nothing short of a brand new sound, and with an identifiably personal touch. If you ask me, that’s the best thing a musician can accomplish. It’s clear the Vancouver duo have challenged themselves note by note on their (in my opinion) breakthrough album.
