Keith Fullerton Whitman / Alien Radio - Split
--- Quote ---Fantastic split album from Dekorder presenting two contrasting works showcasing the vast possibilities of Don Buchla's famous Modular Electronic Music System (originally invented for use by the likes of Morton Subotnick, Ramon Sender, Terry Riley et al at the San Francisco Tape Music Centre). Keith Fullerton Whitman is a noted master of this system: his staggering 'Disingenuity b/w Disingenuousness' put it to mind-bending use last year on Pan Records - topping many end-of-year charts in the process, including our own. His side '101105' was recorded live at the semi-monthly "The Bunker" parties in Brooklyn last year opening up for Detroit's Ectomorph and weaves a delirious sequence of sawtooth arpeggios with a masterfully symphonic touch. The piece is actually spliced from various edits of his performance but plays uninterrupted for a powerfully psychedelic experience. It's surely no wonder that he's now been commissioned a residency at GRM studios to work on a piece for Francois Bayle's original 80-channel acousmonium. By comparison, Ulf Schütte or Alien Radio's side is practically pop, presenting five really excellent shorter compositions anchored by clear, pulsing rhythms reminding of Ursula Bogner's frothy rhythms, the studio experiments of Conny Plank or the functional aesthetics of Delia Derbyshire's Radiophonic outings. You may have previously encountered his music as part of Datashock or Phantom Horse, or most memorably on that Kraak 7" with Ducktails and Kohn. You simply don't come across these sounds articulated with such clarity and diction very often, it really is an an unmissable release.

Autre Ne Veut - Body EP
--- Quote ---You either loved or hated Autre Ne Veut's electrifying 2010 album for Olde English Spelling Bee, and we loved it - as we made abundantly clear at the time. Since its release, ANV has been reasonably quiet, most recently seen turning up on Mordant Music's Variables II 12"; but he's been putting his time to good use it seems, crafting this killer four-track EP for Hippos In Tanks. 'Sweetheart' finds our man warbling and whining in that unmistakable multi-tracked falsetto of his, against a rivetingly three-dimensional sound-scape of moody strings and neatly dubbed drums; it's certainly the most pensive thing we've ever heard from him, and a well-chosen opener. If there was any justice in the world, 'Not The One' would be headed for the upper echelons of the Top 40; if our ears aren't mistaken, ANV here has a female vocal counterpart, and the resulting harmonies are layered to the point of abstraction, all across a darkly rousing, almost fanfare-like melody down below - this is truly pop music that doesn't sound like ANYTHING else out there right now. For the aptly named 'Just Return' and ‘Your Clothes' we're back to the let-it-all-hang-out exuberance of the album, all imploring, high-school-high melody and rocket-fuelled, white-boy synth-funk, like an amphetamine-fuelled smash-up between Huey Lewis, ABC, Trevor Horn and, er, MMM. Man, this stuff is hard to describe. Just let it be known that Autre Ne Veut has gone and blown us away all over again.

Paavoharju - Ikkunat näkevät
--- Quote ---One of Finland's most precious musical exports, Paavoharju, have been far too quiet of late, so Fonal have rounded up seven tracks including exclusive and alternate versions from their two peerless albums. Covering cherished older ground, you'll find a slightly abbreviated mix of the sparkling, Kylie-esque 'Kevätrumpu' and the swelling folk rock of 'Aamuauringon Tuntuinen', but fans will probably be almost over-familiar with those by now, as lush as they are. The new material is worth the wait, sashaying from ghostly coastal ambience in 'Tulilehtisade', through deliciously frothy piano and mossy atmospheres of 'Tuonen Marja' and the crackling embers of 'Mista Hän Oli Tullut', sounding uncannily like a spiked Clams Casino cut. Highly recommended.

Theophilus London - Timez Are Weird These Days (2011)
Theophilus London is an "alternative rap" artist from Brooklyn, NY whose genre-bending approach draws from a range of styles...soul-pop to post-punk to electro to some smoothe R&B. This dude credits Michael Jackson, Prince as well as the Smiths as some of his influences. If you dig a cheesier TV on the Radio, Chromeo, MJ, and Cee-Lo Green, then I think you'll be diggin Mr. London's major lable debut. I'll be honest, the album's pretty darn good. Enjoy!
