"Funny name, Renderizors. But it makes sense when you know that this New Zealand outfit is actually a conglomeration/collaboration of two AQ faves: The Renderers (NZ underground downer pop) and the Sandoz Lab Technicians (NZ underground freeform drone)!!
To quote from a previous review of ours, "Sandoz Lab Technicians may be the most fucked-up and most freeform out of all of the mind-expanding, free noise New Zealanders that we have championed in the past (i.e. Birchville Cat Motel, Dead C, Omit, Anthony Milton, etc.)." Meanwhile, The Renderers are much more in the indie-pop, song-oriented camp, combining post-punk dissonance with bleak depressive melody. Together, you get something that's a very very lovely best of both worlds. Haunted howling winds of gentle feedback quietly accompany the so sweet and so weary female singing from The Renderers' chanteuse Maryrose Crook. Spooky drones both threaten and cajole. Lethargic balladry struggles stoically amidst storms of psychedelic electric distortion, with nihilistic, nasal male mumbling also sharing the mic with the more breathy vox of Ms. Crook. At times we're reminded, maybe mysteriously, of everything from the Velvet Underground to Bardo Pond, Slap Happy Humphrey to Richard Youngs, Pumice to Doodles... and even the echoey '60s dark psych pop of obscure AQ faves Gandalf... though really we'd hope that saying "imagine a mix of The Renderers and Sandoz Lab Technicans" would do the trick! Recommended."  --Aquarius Records

The Renderizors are a new formation of two bands we dearly love: The Renderers and Sandoz Lab Technicians.  One might suspect this to be a jarring collision between the free improv of SLT and the mellow country-esque rock of The Renderers, yet the music here shows a perfect message of the two ideas.  Songs dissolve into swirls of musical deconstructions, then at times reform into the recognizable.  Throughout this hour long album there is a sense of drift and the gorgeousness of space.  This one was a real surprise to me, and I can highly recommend it to anyone who has enjoyed the material from the NZ scene, such as: The Terminals, Flies Inside the Sun, Dissolve, Dadahmah, etc. etc. etc.
