Waveform Transmission Vol. 2
Waveform Transmission Vol. 2 is an album by American electronic musician and record producer Robert Hood, released under the alias The Vision.[1] Issued in 1993 via Tresor record label, it is the second instalment of the Waveform Transmission series.[2] Featuring a different style from Hood's future releases, the record attributes influences to his collective Underground Resistance and Jeff Mills.[3] Critical reception
AllMusic critic Jason Birchmeier found the record to be "nowhere near as realized as his [Hood's] later Tresor recordings such as Internal Empire and Minimal Nation." Birchmeier further stated: "With the syncopated pounding and the maelstrom of looped laser sounds, a stark, austere motif pervades throughout these eight songs; unfortunately, the variety of experimental song ideas so common to his later work is notably absent."[3] Ruaridh Law of Fact described the tracks as "heavy, atonal DJ workouts with plenty of rattling percussion and relatively high BPMs," while comparing them to the "noisy, fast, unrefined-sounding techno" that Hood released on Hard Wax label.[4] Techno: The Rough Guide author Tim Barr thought that the record "demonstrates a distinctive and restless creativity that was all his own."[5] Track listingAll tracks composed by Vision.
