The Gasman

The Gasman is a promising artist, all things considered. Though he does fall into the unfortunately boring 'melodic idm' territory, he has more in common with The Black Dog or early Plaid with his use of melodic phrases, which is a breath of fresh air compared to the 'no key change' style of idm. However promising he is, The Gasman is unfortunately very hit and miss, and seems to have no quality control. While most albums seems to have a number of tracks that please me, it is always marred by what seem like lazy ideas coupled with lazy production work. It's my hope he brings his melodic strength forward more, and works harder on his use of sounds and their sequencing. With more attention to subtle sonic detail and sound sculpting, he could be an even more unique artist.
