Crown of Stars is a new, surprise side project from Denver-based producer and musician Preston Weippert, probably best known for his noise alter ego Volunteer Coroner. On "A Need For Something" he directs our attention away from tape manipulations, obscure drones and twisted loops, instead serving up a cocktail of trance-injected and club-oriented compositions. Although Preston has an experimental techno project Fentanyl Fantasy, which draws inspiration from underground dance music, Crown of Stars feels less gritty and creepy, and more warehouse-ready. This is one to lose yourself in for the night.
