Coma World is a new collaboration between Maxwell Hallett, aka Betamax (The Comet Is Coming, Soccer96) and Pete Bennie (Speaker's Corner Quartet) bringing together their potent chemistry in an intoxicating debut LP. Betamax drives the duo with his signature "rhythmadelic" drum rapture as Pete elegantly pummels bass tones into an assortment of wonky pockets. Both layer on a blanket of electronic dark matter to create a sonic womb-like world laid out for the brave listener to explore. This is dub and jazz reduced to the raw fundamentals of experimentation, trance, and spontaneity. Inspired by a friend's recollections of being in a coma, the duo delves through the mysteries of consciousness and return with a striking array of colorful sound artifacts. From cosmic flushes that wouldn't sound amiss on a record by Byrd Out collaborator the late, great Andrew Weatherall, through to drowsy groove meditations and explosive eruptions, the album plays by its own rules but demands attention. The two artists sling their dirty funk through cold clouds of darkness leaving psychedelic trails of bleeping fractal spillage. The sonic experimentation is distilled through analogue studio relics followed by a rugged "all hands on deck" live mix down performance from ¼" tape.
