Printed into a limited edition of 104 CD-Rs and having a special handmade package (there are also some blond hair included) ARCHAEODERMOPHAGIA is the new work of Reptiljan, one of the Niko Skorpio's musical projects. Being described as spontaneous compositions for bass guitar, contact microphones, fm radio and delay and distortion pedals, the CD contains seven tracks where it really hard to recognize what is what. The tracks don't seem to have a sort of structure and the main thing you'll be aware of is the phase of the stream of sound. The phases are spanning to light feedback with background noises to hard distorted mayhem where it is better you won't have your headphones on. There's also tracks which follow a different scheme, like "Metsanpeittoon" where the classic music coming from a radio channel is "infected" with noises little by little just to be sampled and treated on loops. Also on the following tracks there are traces of a certain musicality but they are rapidly overwhelmed by noise and chaos. I appreciated the most structured moments where I found some form of "organized chaos" but noise for the sake of it isn't my thing...
