Irish DJ David Holmes' second album, LET'S GET KILLED, provides the perfect link between his first and third albums, THIS FILM'S CRAP LET'S SLASH THE SEATS and ESSENTIAL 98/01. The first is a brilliant reinterpretation of the "cinematic" potential of ambient and techno styles, and the third explores just how adaptable existing pieces of music are in the hands of DJ. Musically, LET'S GET KILLED features the expansive, visual qualities of the first record as well as early versions of redefined "found" samples-ambient sounds from the streets and bars of New York-upon which the third album is based.
The seven-and-a-half-minute title track, built around a tough-guy bar narrative describing a fight, features a slow-building beat just off-kilter enough to be disorienting. Delfon Sallahr contributes rapped vocals to "Head Rush on Lafayette," possibly via answering machine. "Rodney Yates" is a curious combination of sounds that suggests a fusion of acid and lounge styles. Holmes' version of dub reggae on "Slasher's Revenge" morphs into an Ennio Morricone-like western score. The best track is probably "Radio 7," a kinetic, house take on the well-known theme music from the James Bond films.
