We delve into ambient territory once again here, but this time with a live improvisation from a producer who previously focused on every conceivable BPM range possible for his abstract club tracks. On »Absent Friends Vol. III«, the obligatory beat-free record is amplified by various technerd explanations to make a grander artistic statement than it really is. That’s not to say that Minor Science has suddenly lost his flair for creating rich synth arpeggios and flashy textures, but he’s largely playing against his real strengths here, which happen to be in drum programming.
