Reviews & Discussion

Review by Moanerman Oct 25, 2008
Leo Anibaldi is one of the few real talented and gifted producers in the electronic scene, perhaps – I dare to say - on the same level of Richard D. James (because of his different approach of music and gear in general). Not only Mister Anibaldi really knows how to use his analogue gear, he’s also able to create a unique sound or universe with it, a twisted, bizarre and even holocaustic atmosphere. The man switches easily from techno & acid, whether it’s hard or just weird, to dark, capturing and claustrophobic ambient or illbient. His releases are now more than 10 years old but all of them have stand the test of time and are true masterpieces witch could only be produced by Leo Anibaldi himself, period.

A lot of rumours were spread about the personal situation of Mister Anibaldi (drugs, he would live in Amsterdam etc.), I don’t know if these rumours are to be taken seriously. The fact is that between 1991 and 1995 Anibaldi released about 15 absolutely genius and groundbreaking EP’s or LP’s, and aside from one promo in 2002, he hasn’t released one single record ever since. Weird, but I guess it’s all part of the Anibaldi-mystery. Truly a top class artist!
