Luomo - Paper Tigers - 11-Mar-08 10:20 AM
Luomo continues to impress. Paper Tigers is even sexier than The Present Lover, but not quite as accessible. While Paper Tigers is a tightly controlled affair, but there are always hints of that Chain Reaction sound. The seemingly random rhythmic effects and gentle reverb that ebb in and out of the songs give the songs give a a sense of space. Songs like Wanna Tell and Cowgirls stretch across the dancefloor like fog on the Coast of Finland. There 's sex, but also a warm intimacy on the more ambient tracks, that sound like Luomo is trying to give you a hug. Overall, Wanna Tell, Good To Be With, and Really Don't Mind are the definite standouts for me.
Monolake - Plumbicon Versions - 05-Feb-08 10:27 PM
My first Monolake purchase. Each remix is very distinct, aiming for a specific atmosphere. While Live in Osaka focuses more on the rhythm and beat, the Rebreather Mix is like floating above storm clouds; the air is so crisp and cool you can see your breathe. The Sleeparchive Remix aims for a dance club drowning in xanax. Plumbicon Epilogue over time has become my favorite of all the mixes. It takes its time, like a thunder storm rolling over the desert. Distant crackles and tiny details give way to its overpowering gloom. Overall a very lush, if not a bit cold collection of remixes.
Technical Itch - Diagnostics - 08-Jan-03 12:52 PM
This is Technical Itch at his finest. The tracks are so complex and layred. Tech Itch can rip apart an amen and blend it with his superb basslines. It's the perfect blend of intract beats and dark, dark, bass.
