5.0étoiles sur 5 Nice listening music, Mars 14 2004
Par Joseph Engle (Bellingham, WA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Just have to listen to the music. Don't have to worry about it. Better than elaborate "good" music.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great music to think to, Nov. 30 2003
Par {HB}SharkMan (the ocean of Oblivion) - Voir tous mes commentaires
I came here on amazon, typed in random words into the search bar, and this cd came up; i heard of them before from a friend but i never actually heard them. I got the cd from my work a couple days later, I was a little scared that the cd might suck since i never heard it before. I popped it into my cd player in my car, and i was like, "whoa" i really liked this music, it made me start thinking about thing, I really like music that incites thinking. Not the kind of thinking, that you start to wonder why did i buy this cd, but the kind of thinking about life, and why are we here, and what does music mean. I dont really want to get all philisophical in this review so i'll just keep it short and say, if you like music that makes you think listen to this.

5.0étoiles sur 5 If you like Boards of Canada,, Avril 22 2003
then you'll like Casino vs Japan. The overall feel is incredibly similar NOT in the sense that they sound anything a like because they don't; but in the sense that Casino vs Japan, like Boards of Canada, creates atmospheric textures with softly rolling drumbeats buried underneath the sonic washes of sound. Otherwordly, atmospheric and ambient. You'll find yourself being washed away on waves of warm synthesizers while childlike melodies whisper softly in your ear. The two minute goose bump inducing 'moonlupe' is one of those tracks, short and dreamy. My personal favorite is 'em essey', a chills-up-my-spine inducing track with a beautiful haunting melody and slow crunchy beats. 'whole numbers play the basics' gets denser and more complicated with each consecutive track and grows on you the more you listen to it. It's one of those discs you can play if you're melancholy or ebullient, it suits every mood. A breath of fresh air in the often dark and dreary world of electronica.

5.0étoiles sur 5 drony and atmospheric, Avril 22 2003
this release gives you the sense that casino versus japan used the same bank of sounds for every track but manipulate each track so expertly that they sound different with familar elements. it works, creating a consistent and linear disc. the only drawback is it can get a bit too "samey" sounding and you'll find that you have to put it away for a bit before pulling it off your shelf and re-enjoying it once again. a great electronica disc full of lingering melodies, melancholy percussion and soft beats.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Essential!!!, Déc 19 2002
Par Tyrone (Istanbul Turkey) - Voir tous mes commentaires
There are very few albums out there I would dare drop the "Essential" moniker on, but this and the other Casino Versus Japan release I own ("Go Hawaii") are as squarely in that category as can be. With most electronica out there it seems really easy to find a cool song on an album (maybe one reason why so many compilations proliferate these days) but most albums in this genre seem to lack consistancy or the kind of attention to detail that Casino Versus Japan does; this alone makes them stand out. Emotional cinematic dreamscape music is the best way I can describe this work: richly textured, meticulous in it's simplicity and amazing in it's beauty. A perfect blend of harmony, melody, rhythm, texture, space, place. This album differs from "Go Hawaii" in it's more assertive melodies, whereas "Hawaii" is content to dwell more in harmonic seascapes. This album is a beautiful development in the sound; I reminded of early Meters: yeah a lot of the songs sound alike but the interest is gained from subtle variations on a single sound/idea, not on wide range of ideas. This is one reason the album stands up to well to repeated and detailed listenings. I have a hard time being coherent about this since it is truly amazing.

5.0étoiles sur 5 US electronica has come of age, Nov. 7 2002
Par unionjackass (Atlanta, GA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Casino Versus Japan's Whole Numbers lp is perhaps the most important album to come about in years. It brings the US to the forefront of low-tempo electronica. The tones range up and down tha table from the high pitched tweeks to the rumbling lows. The beats are rich and thick. It's the type of deep, melodic music that can bring you to tears. The best album I've bought in years.
