Ola Bergman - Pseudocarp

Beautiful 12" by Ola Bergman. Opener "Pseudocarp" shows that electronic music can be as emotional as any other genre (beautiful detuned synths with a hip-hop beat underneat), "Lima" continues in the same vein but with a more downbeat drum rhythm to it. "Snake Meadows" is really something special, the beginning of the song is rather tricky and you're not sure where it is leading to, but all of the sudden it turns into a powerful emotive electro tune...absolutely brilliant!

The B-side starts of with "Vulture's End" which has a funky electro feel to it with lots of detuned synths and a beautifully layered construction that shows off Ola's production skills. As with all the other tracks on this 12", this is once again a very emotional song (yes, I'm getting boring but it's true!). The final track is "Cypsela", a warm chill-out track...great after a day of hard work.

One word: essential!
