The first release from Quebec's Lunice and Glasgow's Hudson Mohawke leans a little more toward the former's solo output than that of the latter. That comes down to the EP's lack of bloody-minded, overloaded garishness. The five cuts lower the boom with varying temperaments, from the zig-zag synthesizer and stomped bleachers of "Gooo" to the shattering glass, demented slide whistles, and rallying grunts of "Easy Easy." It's too developed, too rich with energizing rhythms and thrilling little fillips, to be considered a glorified beat tape. At 16 minutes, it's just about the ideal length, as 40 or more minutes of the stuff might be just a bit excessive. ~ Andy Kellman
