Bonobo - Dial 'm' for Monkey [2003]

Simon Green aka Bonobo is back with nine perfectly formed tracks on a perfectly formed album. No huge, bloated, over-conceptualised rottage for the monkey man. He gets in, does what he has to do, gets out.

From the opener, "Noctuary," with it’s creepy stoned-Hammer feel, through the headnod sitar-funk of "Flutter," on into the Rhodes-meets-Gamelan of "D Song," the first third of the record sets out the tone for what is to follow – all beautfiully melodic and perfectly assembled but with enough of a creeping undertow to stop the music becoming empty or saccharine. "Change Down" is all double bass folk and cut-up drums, "Wayward Bob" is a devilish waltz, while single "Pick Up" is a straight funk ‘n’ flute throw down. "Something For Windy"sounds like a dub of a postman on his rounds, "Nothing Owed" is epic pastoralia, while "Light Pattern" rounds things off with what sounds like the theme to the best TV programme never made.

With all instruments played, sampled and sequenced by Green’s own fair hand, there is a consistency here, both within the tunes and across the record that crate diggers can only dream of. There is real development, the building of moods and feelings, a genuine attempt to make great music which is incidentally computer music. He may make a monkey of himself, but he’s no musical mug…

Bonobo - Noctuary

Polmo Polpo

Alien8 Recordings and its sub-label Substractif will release the debut full-length, “The Science of Breath”, by Toronto producer Sandro Perri, a.k.a. Polmo Polpo, who blends deep, murky techno with rich layers of feedback and densely orchestrated melodies. Recently the artist has enjoyed an explosion in popularity, thanks in part to a number of opening performances for Do Make Say Think, Pan Sonic and Oval.

Trying to describe the sound of Polmo Polpo is not an easy task. The marriage of deep rhythms with shifting waves of melody and sometimes brutal white noise is certainly not a commonly used formula. This music is beyond catchy, the sound of the slide guitar shifting in and out of Gas-style minimalism gives the music a driving force that so much of the genre lacks.

Múm - Dusk Log [2004]

Vuelo atravesando edificios, en mis oídos detonan pequeñas melodías interpretadas con suavidad, se siente la energía interna que estremece aleteando color invisible. Ellos que observan atentamente abajo, ríen, es que los amplificadores guardan celosos grandes temblores imperceptibles para los transeúntes, el cosquilleo de fluidas tonalidades esta relacionado con su representación en vivo, en el escenario cubiertos de plumas blancas fundiéndose en colores por todos lados, que más?, detengo mi parcial intranquilidad, para caer, caer y caer, en un río de rápidos peligrosos, limpiándome las impurezas de la comida chatarra, gracias Múm.

Iceland pop experimentalists Múm were formed by Gunnar Örn Tynes, Örvar Þóreyjarson Smárason, and classically trained twin sisters Gyða and Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir. Formed in 1997, the group met while working on a children's play.

Prefuse 73 - Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives [2001]

Warp's second 2001 release by a stateside producer (after Richard Devine's Lip Switch) is one of the most enjoyable works of experimental techno heard in several years, a combination of tough, underground hip-hop and the fractured neo-electro of Warp favorites Autechre and Plaid. Scott Herren, the lone figure behind releases as Delarosa & Asora, Savath & Savalas, and Prefuse 73, constructs raw breakbeat tracks, cutting and splicing vocals, beats, and pianos over and over until what may previously have been a straight-ahead hip-hop rhythm track gets reconstructed into a symphony of deeply groovy musique concrète. Herren calls on the raw repetition of DJ Premier and the catchy finesse of Timbaland to create a collection of tracks that could appeal to fans of DMX just as well as AFX. Just slightly more experimental than the increasingly fractured productions you'd hear on a mainstream rap station, Vocal Studies + Uprock Narratives is also much more fun than the notoriously academic cast of techno producers led by Autechre and Richard Devine.

Autechre - Amber [1995]

Autechre, sobrepasando en la memoria, tu desfigurado trabajo escultural que se imprime en la actualidad llena de valores, útiles, y explosión de belleza transparente, agua de río, cada vez más escasa, claro! es que he sido cambiado de atmósfera, lejano, concreto un nuevo rumbo y las arañas que viajaron miles de años atrás por el espacio en letargo me acompañan. Sonido que Sean Booth y Rob Brown fabrican con sintetizadores y pistas insertas a la máquina perdurable de recursos naturales, ocho filtros análogos entrelazan la distancia ahora con una interpretación vaga, aquí, los vacíos los rellenas tú, en los comentarios (Congelador de tu Conciencia), eso entiendan, así todo se entregara a su debido tiempo.

Autechre, exceeding in the memory, your disfigured sculptural work that there stamp at present abundances of values, useful, and explosion of transparent beauty, water of river, increasingly scantily, clearly! It's that I have been changed of atmosphere, distantly, concretly a new course and the spiders that travelled thousands of years behind for the space in lethargy. Sound that Sean Booth and Rob Brown make with synthesizers and tracks the lasting machine of natural resources, eight analogous filters they interlace the distance now with a vague interpretation, here, the emptinesses you refill them, in the commentaries (Congelador de tu Conciencia), understand it, this way everything was submitting duly.

Aphex Twin - Melodies from Mars (1995)

Electrónica para mantener despiertos los sentidos reaccionando ante el cerebro mutante. Richard David James, más conocido como Aphex Twin nos entrega composiciones de calidad transportadas desde el silencio completo, espacial, es un trabajo recolector deslumbrante, infestado de marcianos, seres escondidos en su textura musical. Un sonido claro y fluido en experimentos rítmicos, tal vez solo falta tu comentario.

Electronics to keep the senses awake reacting to the brain mutant. Richard David James more known as Aphex Twin delivers us qualit compositions transported from the complete, spatial silence, is a work dazzling recollector infected of Martians, beings hidden in his musical texture. A clear and fluid sound in rhythmic experiments, maybe only is absent your commentary
