Color Wheel by Growing
Growing: Color Wheel
Troubleman Unlimited 4/11/2006
Color Wheel is often lumped in with the work of Growing's contemporaries in noise such as Excepter, Wolf Eyes and Death From Above 1979. However, this doesn't tell the whole story. Color Wheel is more similar to Brian Eno's Discrete Music in its elegance and breadth. Rarely does noise overshadow the ponderous drones. Fuzzy, cacophonous bits of detritus float past one another on a sea of pure tones. The overarching theme is balance; rhythms throb unchangingly over periods of up to twenty minutes to give stability to the compositions, while random flares of noise break up the monotony.
