It's frustrating to listen to Blectum from Blechdom, as they do their best to disfigure any number of boundaries, including the exclusivity that separates the squeaky clean sheen of techno and the lo-fi slop of so many indie-rock four-track recordings, the sexual predestination of girls and boys, and the accepted truisms of what is good and bad music. Kevin Blectum and Blevin Blechdom began collaborating at Mills College in what was the first in a series of happy accidents. The two were playing a gig in which Blectum was to fade out just before Blechdom started up, but instead Blectum's computerized sequences fell in perfect sync with Blechdom's sampler. Since then, the duo has performed a dozens of theatrical gigs and released a handful of recordings, with an album for Deluxe, a 12-inch for Kit Clayton's Orthlorng Musork, and a lathe-cut 10-inch for Dial Records.
