Yeah, there's definitely something strangely flat and unfinished to it - kind of sounds as though it could have been made on one of those handheld Yamaha synth/sequencer things. Everything is just too raw and plain in the mix, really, to provoke any excitement or draw the listener into it. That

iTunes is a lot cheaper than the Warp store, I think - it's 99 cents for a track on iTunes, and 99 pence on Warp, so at the current exchange rate it's almost twice as expensive. Not sure if iTunes has a "per EP" pricing deal, though; what I've seen of it seems to be heavily structured around alb
