This CD, Trick Doubt from Nudge is 3 years of shifting players and an ever-thickening cocoon of working methods being molded by an unerring sense of melody and drift belonging to Brian Foote. Stark, pleading interplay gives way to vast magnetic indulgence and back again. Addled programming meets human granular drumming and a strange new crunk is glimpsed, a party where tuning and time both get sprung. Brian and cohorts Mat Morgan (Fontanelle, CNS Engineering), Honey Owens (TraLaLa, Jackie-O Motherfucker), Elton Lawson (Metatron), Andy Brown (Fontanelle, Southerning), and Paul Dickow (Fontanelle, Strategy) have managed to swindle emotions from unsuspecting machines. Now the machines are looking to ease the pain.
