Edmonton's 300 Baud is the brainchild of one Yuval Kordov, a.k.a. DJ uv23. Weaned on the sounds of Skinny Puppy, SPK and their peers, Kordov followed the same path as many of us old industrial fogeys, discovering the work of Autechre, Aphex Twin et al as the industrial scene began to stagnate in the early 90s. On this debut release, he draws influence in equal parts from both the old and new schools, resulting in a cold and intense series of tracks that veer from dark, threatening ambience to harsh, unrelenting blasts of distorted beats. An excellent addition to Canada's growing roster of experimental techno artists who helping to push electronic music to the next level.
