POM POM CD 001
Pom Pom / POM CD 001/ 01 Dec 2008 / download
“The shadowy Pom Pom have been beavering away in obscurity since 2001, releasing untitled tracks in text-free, “none-blacker” vinyl-only editions, no information available. In a culture currently collapsing from promotion-overload, this information-void is particularly appealing. And Pom Pom’s clunky brand of techno only adds to the charm—brazenly hand-crafted, functional, but with little interest in fads or genre conventions, this is weird stuff. It sounds like the product of Berghain mated with Profan: dark, reverb-dunked rhythms lost in pools of tape hiss, divergent patterns causing further confusion, crudely sampled patches of static. Pom Pom is Marcel Dettmann meets Marcel Marceau; punishing, but with tongue-in-cheek and a playful glint in its eye. If T. Raumschmiere is techno’s punk-rock, then Pom Pom is its No Wave.” RA review
