When you start reading about Suicide you find out that the equipment they used was all used, used Farfisa organ, used drum machines etc. The same was with early Cabs, they played whatever they could find and incorporated it all to their sound. Today we don't even have to do that, since there is so much free and shareware software around that you can virtually do the whole thing without or with very little money.
So we come to Narrow, an excellent Cabs inspired project, from Zagreb, Croatia. Heavily into lo-fi, they use analog used equipment and a Sony walkman. Everything is mastered onto a compact cassette due to its "sound quality". This is their first release, made on two mini cd-r's and put into a very intuitive packaging, which resembles LP's gatefold sleeve.
The music itself is a near perfect old fashioned bleepy industro dance that Cabaret Voltaire are the crowned kings of. The prime track here is: Don't talk to me 'bout love, my personal DJ-ing favourite. It gets me started in the right direction.
