Readymade: Bold

So the clicks and cuts found ways to be more palatable to the overground. Readymade sinks right in and keeps the integrity of the IDM movement with excellent sound production and knob twiddling. Consonant, glitchy noises bounce off each other in the most thought provoking and intriguing ways. But they also manage to create some of the most appealing melodies and addictive grooves. A couple tracks even incorporate vocals that flow so well over the experimental music, it’s like they were born together that way. Hell, it even has David Sylvian on one excellent track"Sugar Fuel."He did a marvelous job and it was back in 2001 when we all believed that he'll never record again. Well, we were very wrong. Blemish anyone?
Listen to this first.
It's a hell of a record.

DING DONG’, LP/CD (Kitty-Yo, 2000)
I don't know much about Jeans Team except the fact that they recorded this album for the German label Kitty-Yo, and that they are the closest I heard somebody came to something we could call electro punk. I came across this album working in a music shop, and while I was in search of some quality glitch stuff. This was not glitch but was so much more. It wasn't as aggressive as Atari Teenage Riot but was so joyfull and young, so fresh. Like a celebration of youth. My favourite track is unforgettable and hopelessly catchy little tune Keine Melodien. Yo no canto melodias, yo canto 1,2,3,4. A true gem.

Cabaret Voltaire - International Language 1993

Becoming less funk and less acid house made Cabaret Voltaire able to reinvent themselves once again in a glorious fashion, and International Language is no exeption to the rule. This is ambient techno at its finest. These guys simply know how to make music, or as in case with their ex member Chris Watson, not to make music but sound. Kings!!!

Cabaret Voltaire - The Conversation

A sort of a goodbye by Kirk and Mallinder, this is, up to this date, the last album by the Cabs and is one of their finest if not thee finest of the later period. It is where they show just how great they really are. A band so far ahead of their, and our time as well, that it hurts. You'll find no other band like this.

The Best of 2006

I think I'm going a bit soft here but this is the best album released this year. It's Crane Wife by The Decemberists whom I didn't like that much because they sounded much alike some of the bands I wouldn't exactly call my favourites (R.E.M., The Smiths etc...)
But somwhere along the line they listened to some ELP, who also suck, but it all melted into best album of last year by far, together with TV On The Radio and The Knife.
