Project M-13's string of sonic collages is quite different from the soothing, finely crafted soundscapes associated with ambient music. This collaboration has an appealingly rough-hewn quality. Tracks don't necessarily go anywhere in particular, but it's fun to follow the musical wanderings of Milk Cult and their associates. Hip-hop beats, birdsong, hard-rock riffing, turntable scratching, and dog barks are just a few of the elements that make up this CD's aural fabric. Vocals pop up here and there on the album. Like the instrumental textures, they vary widely, and include lovely, wordless singing, distorted, raplike utterances, and emotive recitation. Works like Project M-13 occupy an interesting place in contemporary music. Too harsh to take a sonic bath in and too amorphous to provide structural niceties, the disc offers up pleasure in the form of sound for sound's sake. Call it roughed-up ambient or musique concrete à la pop. --Fred Cisterna
