Liquid Liquid
I've bemoaned on a few occasions the lack of electronic music giving me a thrill lately. I'm a bit of a massive nerd for the old skool B12, Black Dog, Aphex, A.R.T. and Skam sounds... and very little lately gives me the same buzz.
Well one label that seems to be doing things the right way is A.I.
The label really came to prominance in '03 with the simply MASSIVE 'Piece of Mind' by Claro Intelecto.
It takes a good while to kick off properly, but by the time it does you'll have been sucked in by the lush organ sounds, morse code clicks and fizzing hi-hats.
CLARO INTELECTO - PIECE OF MIND (ELECTROSOUL)
It was a tune I knew I loved, but it wasn't till I heard it blasting out in an empty smoke filled room in a Barcelona club I realised quite how fucking good it was. Alas I don't think my speakers (or an MP3) can play the bass out to its full glory.
Claro is no one-hit wonder. Some of his other productions are equally mind-blowing. Check the banging 'Delete' from the New Town LP, or the mindbending Detroit-esque '2000' from the Produce LP. Or indeed most of Claro's solo album 'Neurofibre'. It's top stuff and highly recommended.
This next track, also on the AI label, contains more of that really liquid sounding electro. Christ, I need to think of some new names for things. I call everything electro nowadays. Anyways, it's the opening track from the fifth label compilation - 'New Town' - released in 2004. And like all good electronic tunes it'll make your hips move and your head spin.
ANDY FREER - SUPER GALAXO
As far as I can tell it's the only track he's ever released! Well I don't know about you but i'd love to hear some more of that shit. Those are some pretty mashed up noises he's dug up. Get back in the studio son!
If you like these, why not try out the recently released low-priced label sampler. Available from Amazon and from here.
Cheeky bonus tracks...
