SLOWDOWN by COMPACTOR
A Sonic Document of Work Slowdown.
"On Slowdown, NYC's Compactor doesn't pull any punches. And, no, that isn't just a figure of speech: an insistent, bare-knuckle focus informs this release...Compactor's hard knocks are granted enough static-sprayed white space to really startle the fuck out of any listener with a wandering attention span..." - Raymond Cummings, VILLAGE VOICE

COMPACTOR is an interconnected set of mostly obsolete machinery that is manipulated by an anonymous, representational figure known as The Worker, for the Waste MGT corporation. The machinery creates largely atonal and often rhythmic audio, a soundtrack to the daily grind. Each Audio Work Document has a different subject and corresponding sonic focus, often some aspect of work and/or technology.
