The Kracfive label’s MP3 of the month is Colongib‘s dubby remix of Cex‘s “At Least One Unwilling Passenger” (MP3 file here, MP3 of the month page here, Kracfive website at kracfive.com). Though the laptop computer is an arguably neutral music-making tool, this track exemplifies what some might call a “laptop aesthetic”: starting and stopping at will, it is slacker-careless in its cut’n’paste randomness, and poppy despite its incoherence. It’s also a lot of fun.
