AMG Review of Low Frequency Speaker Test

Tom Schulte
All Music Guide

Low Frequency Speaker Test provides the unique interplay of two basses. Here these rhythm instruments become the co-supporting melody instruments. Playing the bass guitars here are two serious skateboarders and friends. One is Tommy Guerrero and the other is Monte Vallier (Swell). This is an eight-cut EP released to presage an LP that followed. Enhancing the bass grooves here is a bit of the DJ tweak and some space guitar. Jet Black Crayon makes an after-hours, chill-out art out of the low end.
