I've been waiting for a follow-up to Panda Twin's full length on Sub Jam, The Man Who Hated the Shadow. That album's digital-hardcore noise blasts and dark synths were enjoyable, but they didn't hold a candle to the fun, silly, make-you-bounce-up-and-down-while-destroying-your-eardrums assault of their live shows. These four short tracks, totaling less than ten minutes, are just a taste, unfortunately — but they are an excellent glimpse. "Ara (CDR Remix)" starts off with distorted synthesized horns, just enough to unsettle you and leave you unprepared for the avalanche of drum breaks that soon follow. The beats are joined by playful melodies and clipped voice samples. The effect is not unlike a cross between Kid606 and Nobukazu Takemura. "One" is the highlight of this section; this is music to turn up extremely loud, dance around your apartment with your arms flailing, and generally confuse your neighbors.
