Lupus - "Obertura"
Great electronica (10/10)
[Myspace]
|
Piece of melancholic, emotional and very interesting experiments straight from Spain. Obertura is an masterpiece work of young artist called Lupus and we are very proud that we can show this debut release to you! This very mature album sounds somewhere between avant garde / idm / glitch / concrete music. Sounds flirt amongst, they brushes, crashes, blend in, connect and melt in sometimes melodic, sometimes unmelodic structures. In few songs you can hear some of live instruments. Would you like to find them?
Great ambient / downtempo / experimental electronica. The artist really knows how to keep your attention, what is not always easy in this genre. The tunes are slightly melancholic, yet energetic. I highly recommend it even to those who do not like such music too much - maybe you will change your mind after this one.

Thalyla - "Records Of The Demon Hunting"
Strange minimalistic music (7/10)
It's nice but worse than last works of Thalyla. 1 Anneke in the Askani Wood - it's just boring ambient. 3 Howl is not a Horn - too chaotic. The pieces of the puzzle that were used just do not fit. But the climax of the album, that is "6 Demon Outing" is great! Really scary tune perfectly illustrating the tune's and album's title. Church bells, demon's growls, apocalyptic sounds - a small (a minute and a half long!) gem. The rest of the tracks are simply good, in the usual Thalyla's style. Not perfect but not bad either. Oh, and if someone don't know the artist, Thalyla uses this formula for music: minimal + techno + electronica + industrial + some other smaller flavours. The result is usually very strange but tasty. However, for beginners I strongly recommend these Thalyla's albums: "EumeniNme" & "Defender Invader Nefander". They are masterpieces. The third best is "M.". |

Phon - "Beatles Are Dead"
Better than the original versions! (9/10)
These remixes are amazing. I love the way the artist treated these legendary compositions. Everyone tries to play the Beatles "with respect" and the covers are inferior. But Phon does not have any complexes, he approached these masterpieces with an empty --- err, I mean open --- mind and he won! I love so many ideas on this album. On "Yesterday" I love heavy guitars and growling in choruses - very surprising in a song that was once a ballad. Use of a symphonic orchestra in "Day in a life" may seem a bit strange firstly, but as the track unfolds, you begin to comprehend and appreciate the idea that Phon asked musicians to swap their instruments for this one session. On "Come together" mixing John's & Paul's voices with Britney Spears' "Ooops I did it again" was just another master's move. You feel this tune should have always sounded this way! Yodelling on "Helter Skelter" fits perfectly the awkward German language version of lyrics, autotranslated with Babelfish. The choir of drunken Afghan talibs is a great counterpoint to Lennon's piano played on fast forward on "Eleanor Rigby". I also like their funny English accents and how they replaced "Waits at the window, wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door" with "Waits at the window, keeping the head of George W. in a jar by the door". I could go on like this for an hour, there are so many fresh concepts here, giving the listener fresh look on these thousand-times heard songs. One thing I didn't like is replacing the original vocal line with an opera-singing on "Yellow Submarine". But maybe that's because I don't like opera. So, to summarize: Everybody! Please welcome Phon, the remixing master! And I'm waiting for the followup album: "Phon the Rolling Stone" with his versions of Satisfaction, Angie and so on... Maybe with a guest appearance by Kokkaljos? I'm asking for too much, I know... |

Macroform - "Your Heart Is A Transceiver"
Fantastic downtempo/ambient (9/10)
This album is full of fantastic downtempo / ambient tunes. Sometimes a little experimental, but still smooth - no hardcore here. Great catchy melodies, nice soothing atmosphere, fine use of real instruments (or really really good samples). Never boring, like so many bad ambient productions. Just a pure feast for yer ears. Simon says: Check it out now! The highlights include: 1 Cold Day 2 Cool Grass 3 Canister 5 Leaves Fall P.S. Why not 10? 10 is given too often on Jamendo. Note that good albums start at 7...

Grammar - "EP"
Very fine ambient-based glitch (9/10)
[Myspace]
|
With great pleasure we give in your hands debut EP of young American artist hidden under GRAMMAR nickname. Artist penetrates cold and distant areas of idm / glitch / abstract sounds establishing to scapes created by Autechre duo. Grammar ep gives us 20 minutes of highly organised chaos. You may ask: organised chaos? Yes! Ostensible minimalism and freezing cold compositions intertwine with highly extended and complex metalurgical backgrounds, spaces and surfaces. Unequal, rough beat blends with all kinds of cracks, glitches, snaps, clicks and smashes generating unique shape of records created by young American. Grammar first ep is dose of intelligent, melancholic electronics filled with tronic emotions. If you ever saw music in colours, Grammar sounds looks like blue light illuminating digital palettes of ice and mechanical colors.
Very fine ambient-based glitch. Calm and disturbing at the same time. Experimental, yet surprisingly accessible. Highly recommended work.

Rastadeush - "Night Is Too Short"
Energetic techno - but not all tracks are equally fine (6/10)
[Myspace]
second release at 49manekinow.net [49mannequines.net]. dirty astmatic terror electro-tech/techno from south silesia in poland. "night is too short" is LP recorded in 2006 by young silesian hooligan RASTADEUSH
It's energetic techno, mixing breakbeat, electro, dance - but not all tracks are equally fine. Almost half of the album (01, 03, 08, 10, 13-14) contains primitive, repetitive dance and electro pieces. But the rest is much much better - still energetic and danceable, but catchy and creative at the same time. So I still recommend checking this album out - some of the tracks are top class. Rastadeush is really talented, if only he stopped trying to satisfy primitive disco lovers.

Williamson - "A Few Things To Hear Before We All Blow Up"
Thank gods for a review system (8/10)
Thank god for a review system! Why? Because this album did not catch my ear on the first listen. I thought "nice, pleasant, too smooth". And would maybe ignore it, but I looked through the enthusiastic reviews and decided to give it another try. Good for me. Because this is really very good record! I will not go deep into details, because my predecessors said it all. It's flawlessly recorded downtempo, with very classical - I'd say - approach: without many strange sounds, broken beats, experiments but with real instruments. Very calm, atmospheric and soothing music. It may be too warm and peaceful for some, but everyone must admit that this is first-class recording. Check it out. I won't mention particular tracks, because this is very even album. A lossless version of the album is available on Magnatune. |

Niko - "Lost Experiments"
Good and diverse techno / electronica (7/10)
Good and diverse techno / electronica album, successfully mixing many genres - pure techno, ambient, space music, downtempo. Not as experimental as the artist claims, though. For me the best were space music tracks, especially no. 6 - "Beyond The Clouds" - really great melody here. And the least successful were simple techno pieces no. 04 & 05 - repetitive, with boring tunes and beats. Overall - nice effort, worth listening / downloading. |

Etherdust - "At Someone Else's Funeral" [EP]
Average electronic industrial (6/10)
Quite a mediocre effort. The tunes are catchy, but bad production, mixing, uninteresting vocals and complete lack of originality ruin the positive impression. Nevertheless, if it is only the first demo of a new still-learning band, this project may develop into something interesting. But for the time being they sound like a Stabbing Westward cover-band. More detailed comments: 1 "Before It Breaks Down" - it's the worst track on this EP, mostly because of the poor mixing. The sound of cymbals that can be heard from about 1 minute into the track onward is fully placed in the left channel instead of being mixed in stereo. This is very annoying effect - I almost felt like listening to the first faulty stereo recordings from the sixties. Very unprofessional. This track differs from the other two by being strictly electronic and instrumental. It's a disadvantage, because both the melody and the electronic effects are monotonous and uncreative. 2 "Take My Place" - it's a typical Stabbing Westward's tune. Even the vocalist's voice and his manner of singing copies the SW vocalist. The one thing that interferes with enjoying this (and the third) track is bad production and unselective sound. 3 "At Someone Else's Funeral" - definitely the best tune on this album. The band managed to build really great atmosphere here (almost like on "What Do I Have To Do?" by SW). Nice piano, too. Unfortunately, the above objections still apply. [Artist's Website - Beware!

Prodigy, the - "Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned" (2004)
The Prodigy are an English electronic dance music group formed by Liam Howlett in 1990 in Braintree, Essex. Along with Fatboy Slim, The Chemical Brothers and The Crystal Method, as well as other acts, members of the Prodigy have been credited as pioneers of the big beat genre which achieved mainstream popularity in the 1990s and 2000s. They have sold over 25 million records worldwide. Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned is just underwhelming. For a group that has historically specialized in getting your attention any way it possibly could, the fact that I found many of the tracks to be predictably rote is probably as damning an indictment as I can offer. The Prodigy have made a career out of consistently upping the ante with every single release: the rave landmark Experience was followed by the more expansive, more ambitious Music for the Jilted Generation, which was followed by the leaner, angrier Fat of the Land. This is the first Prodigy album that does not in some way build of its predecessor, and it suffers. Certainly, Fat of the Land II would have been an uninspiring choice, but it seems as if this album is more concerned with abjuring the regrettable decisions of the past few years than in building a new a new and dynamic sound.

Watch out - in the very popular and easily available in the Internet rip of the Japanese release [2004.08 - Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned (Sony SRCP 373)] one of the tracks is not lossless - it's a recoded mp3 (10 - You'll Be Under My Wheels.flac). This rip is popular as it has an additional track. So my recommendation is to download XLCD 183. rip and then add "13 - More Girls.flac" from the Sony SRCP 373 rip.

Macroform - "Barren Tree" [EP]
Great downtempo (9/10)
Well, I think I'll just repeat more or less what I already wrote in my review of the first album by Macroform. This record is full of fantastic downtempo tunes. Sometimes a little experimental, but still smooth - no hardcore here. Technically, it's a crossover of electronica and acoustic rock. Great catchy melodies, nice soothing atmosphere, fine use of real instruments. Never boring, like so many bad "atmospheric" productions. Just a pure feast for yer ears. Simon says: Check it out now! The highlights: 1 Forgiven 3 My ankles Hurt 6 Space Ship 8 Can you make me better? P.S. Why not 10? 10 is given too often on Jamendo. Note that good albums start at 7...

Bonobo - "Days To Come" [2CD Limited Edition] (2006)
With the experimental warmth of '60s French films and the pizzicato flavor of horizontal hip-hop, Simon Green's Bonobo project established the welcome niche of a pretension-free, post-party intellectual chillout. [Read more --->] With his third proper album as Bonobo, Simon Green has done what all artists aspire to do: take a bar you've already set high with your previous outing (in his case, 2003's Dial M For Monkey) and show significant progress. Days to Come very well might be the most listenable album to be released this year. Bonobo is easily labeled as down-tempo, but this should not be mistaken for some Buddha Bar/Mushroom Jazz compilation throwaway. Days to Come is complex, orchestrated music from a man who has moved well beyond his 2001 debut, Animal Magic (Tru Thoughts) to create an album that successfully blurs the line between a programmed and live sound.
