Jake Mandell seems to go about music in a very interesting way. His recent album on Carpark, "Love Songs For Machines" is based around the idea in that title. It is an exploration of computer music through an IDM screen, and do make sure to annunciate the DANCE in IDM. It's like pop electronic a lot of the way through, but has lots of highlights even for the dedicated chin scratchers. The production on Love Songs For Machines is FLAWLESS. All the tones are full as they could be, unlike much of the thin sounding music that falls into the IDM slot. I'd dare say that I enjoy Jake Madell's ability as a producer more than his taste in music.

November 20, 2001mandell has proven his music came provide inspired moments ( a la "i wont lie" off of "clicks and cuts 1"). overall,
he has flashes of clarity in often overwrought structures,
the tracks of his that can age will do so quite well.
