a while ago i was digging for tracks to use in an autonomic-styled mix and i found "sweet spot" and liked it. in the end i didn't use it as it didn't work with the other tracks. i didn't know of alley cat prior but that was with three fourths of the tracks i used prior to making that mix. my research was necessary for this genre that i had a clue about but didn't care about. it was mainly done by looking at tracklists from the autonomic podcast and then looking for the tracks and played on juno and listening to related tracks as well.
this was part of the latter but to be honest, it was more a track related to the related tracks as i wouldn't really call this track autonomic, it's just a wee bit wonkier than the usual cuts. the nitty on "sweet spot" was that i liked it because it had a sound that i recognized from the goldie rerubs of garbage's "milk", and i really that bleek style of those remixes.
"sweet spot" got to me as it has this dirty digital sound in it's soundscape. as in it is obviously made with computers but there is a lo-fi approach to the sounds. that doesn't mean that they're murked to sound "organic" and raw but i would think more casiotone or 16-bit audio degraded to 4-bit. this is only a proper description to synthesised sounds as the tr-808 sounds really cut through the sounds.
it's an incredibly well made piece of drum & bass with relentless rhythms, a really deep sub bass and retro-futuristic sounds.
