Enduser's albums for Ad Noiseam are always very multidimensional
and ambitious, as demonstrated with 2006's "Pushing Back",
Enduser's yardstick so far. In this sense, the best way to
understand "Even Weight" is to read Enduser's own opinion and
intent about it.
"This is not a dance album, it's more of a listening thing"
says Lynn Standafer about this album. Though obviously harder
than most and driven by Enduser's infectious breakcore beats,
"Even Weight" is something which needs to be listened to, and
not only danced to. His sound has gained a lot in width and his
melodies are more encompassing than ever before. Starting with
"Retribution", on which Sol Thomas (known for his involvement in
Standafer's "Calling The Vultures") lends his voice to Enduser
again, the album reveals itself as a one that aims at the heart
more than at the feet. The choice of guest vocalists (Jarboe of
Swans closing the record and Belgium's O For Odetta) are another
demonstration of the scorched nature of Enduser's message here,
as is the fact that the various friends than he invited on this
album (Hecq, Karsten Pflum, Architect and Bonk) appeared to have
played mostly with drums, while Enduser kept his hands free for
harmonies, melodies and arrangements.
This couldn't be an Enduser album without some heavy, fast,
hard moments though, and tracks such as "Void", "Reciprocal" and
"Distance" make sure that Enduser keeps his throne in the heart
and set list of breakcore DJs worldwide. And still, it is each
track which is even balanced in itself (the bass, the voices,
the breaks forming a cohesive whole in every song), not just the
album as a whole.
"Even Weight" is an important album. For Enduser first, as it
shows that this artist, an essential and towering figure of the
breakcore and drum'n'bass scene, was able to take another leap
forward and reinvent himself. For the fans, who will finally
quench their thirst for new material and discover tunes they
could only wish for. And finally for Ad Noiseam, who is proud to
bring this album to the world.
