Quantum Loop

This is some pretty weird stuff, very abstract and ethereal. It has a definite science fiction feel to it, at times sparse and at other times atmospheric. Sample loops pervade the tracks in ways that twist the mind into hitherto unknown shapes. The label claims the music can be compared to the Blade Runner soundtrack. Somehow, I can’t imagine hearing this while searching for Sanctuary. In all, however, this is quite good for its genre. Quantum Loop Productions, P.O.
