Formless/Functional
Polara专辑介绍:by Vincent JeffriesThis collection of cut-and-paste pop ended up being the final recorded expression of raw experimentalism for Ed Ackerson's Polara. To put it in the best light, if the Beatles were given nothing but a microphone and a Macintosh, they might have rendered something similar to Ackerson's dance-pop on the opening "Whassup?," but like the Fab Four, Polara was destined to make their best music with instruments in their hands and a tune in their hearts. Ackerson is a talented producer, and his ability to completely ignore stylistic boundaries is admirable, but full-on electronic cuts like the drum'n'bass "Got the Switch" or the dry and mechanical "Verbing" probably should have been released under a different moniker. There are more than a few choice art pop and plain old guitar/vocal works on Formless/Functional ("Trainwreck," "I Can Believe") that while refreshing, do little to further the record's larger sense of deconstruction. It's cool to try and obliterate musical preconceptions, but like anything else, it is best attempted when armed with commitment and a theme. Perhaps that is a contradiction, but without a connection to anything that preceded it and without stating anything other than a devotion to pure eclecticism, Formless/Functional sounds thrown together and random.
