Taking cue from some of the most lyrical releases of the British IDM corpus, Almond Butyl infuses the gentleness of colourful video games soundtracks like those of \u003cb\u003eBomberman\u003c\/b\u003e or \u003cb\u003eKatamari\u003c\/b\u003e - the kind of games where you have to defeat caterpillars and ladybugs in pixel gardens.

Light-years ahead of about everyone else, he delivers a perfect techno pop album, creating enduring Japanese pop music tropes for western audiences. Alternating between uplifting anthems like \"Venezia\" and complex ambient tunes like \"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eかちゃくちゃねぇ\", it reflects the same kind of dystopian technology-thirsty universe than Akira or Ghost In The Shell. Absolutely essential album, in its deluxe 1983 edition. \u003c\/span\u003e(VG+\/VG seam split).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\" data-mce-style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;

Nor am I saying that Dean Blunt is the only innovator. I'd argue that he freed many artists from a couple of industry standards regarding format and genres, especially by encouraging a more frontal and easy relationship between underground music and mainstream aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrgan Tapes, is a great example of a brilliant alumni of the \u003cstrong\u003eBlunt\/Ferraro\u003c\/strong\u003e school who does his own thing. Though blatantly under the influence of DB, he succesfully fostered his own lore of deterritorialized vocoder-driven mumble pop.

Most importantly - for me at least, who care so much about the LP format - 唱着那无人问津的歌谣 is extremely consistent : it offers a slightly desolated yet warm urban landscape, full of discreet clipping and tiny glitches that decorate with taste Organ Tapes' pocket ballads - without feeling gimmicky - and eventually gives a true taste of the z\u003cem\u003eeitgeist\u003c\/em\u003e like only very few records do. \u003cem\u003e(NM\/NM)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Helvetica;\"\u003eTracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Helvetica;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEventually He Will Come Into My Life\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Helvetica;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHow You Will\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Helvetica;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLine (W.

Perfect music to let yourself drift away.

Absolutely crisp sound, superbly produced and great pressing for a high quality listening experience. It makes me kind of miss the heydays of the dance music album format.

Rather than fight it, Lil' Ronin, embraces this state of deliquescence by cobbling together his own electronic ruins with cracked VSTs, shattered synths, precarioulsy recorded voices (his own, mostly) and some miraculously strong compressors. \u003cem\u003eComme des mots\u003c\/em\u003e is mumble club music, incidentally recalling the post-war poetry of Lettristes and the Beat Generation, and actually produced by someone who's been heavily consuming mumble rap, cloud rap and other highly codeine fulled productions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThere's something monstrous in Lil' Ronin's music, a feeling of dubiousness emanating from the bastardized fruit of his geeky love for UK dance music, gimmicky early 21st century songs and all sorts of experimental sounds from the past 30 years. That's precisely that monstrosity that makes \u003cem\u003eComme des Mots\u003c\/em\u003e memorable, distinguishing itself from the lot of highly codified (and thus stylized) shoegaze \/ progressive house \/ hyperpop releases flooding streaming platforms. It's a set of songs so direct, so unceremoniously bringing poetry back into the music, in unexpected ways (cut-up fragments of text read by Lil Ronin, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eagain, vaguely recalling poetic iconoclasts of the mid 20th Century) that it feels at odds with a time when everything needs to be labeled and easily identified (even experimental music, but do we need to recall how conservative these scenes can be?).

Finest psychedelic pop excavated from the fuming ruins of the 21st Century, in a very Brusselard manner. Fantastic artwork by Anaïs Fontanges.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIt has been established a long-time ago now, that everything is music, more over, that everything can be turned into music: this morning's dream, sign posts read from a car's backseat, sounds of trains leaving and entering the station, destroying half of a venue with an excavator... Daisy Ray sits on that spectrum, far from Hanatarash and other harsh noise acts, though, but rather close to small music and toy improvisators \u003cstrong\u003ePascal Comelade\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eSteve Beresford\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eKlimperei\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eI usually tend to regard with suspicion any geographic explanation to why a record sounds like this or that, but I cannot fight the feeling that only music bred under Belgian skies can exhale such a hovering gloom, and at the same time, conjure it with a wink. Daisy Ray certainly has that BXL tongue-in-cheek attitude and an appeal for the brainy, and the weird, offering a cartoonish rather than serious take on psychedelia, not dissimilar to that offered by Belgian acts like \u003cstrong\u003eAksak Maboul\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003eCOS\u003c\/strong\u003e half a century ago. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eShe scrapbooks tiny, minimal and bare pop songs, with everything that falls within her reach, but in these messy little fantasies of her, Daisy Ray always takes the lead, conducting such Silly Symphonies with a voluptuous yet strict voice, in a way that sometimes recalls \u003cstrong\u003eLolina \u003c\/strong\u003e('\u003cem\u003eonce in a while\u003c\/em\u003e', '\u003cem\u003eyou ran away\u003c\/em\u003e') or the ice-cold coolness of \u003cstrong\u003eAnnette Peacock\u003c\/strong\u003e. She distillates tunes about about dead-ends and wrong turns ('\u003cem\u003ewrong train\u003c\/em\u003e') in an almost sadistic manner. Red herrings, obviously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eNotably, song titles mostly refer to a particular state of consciousness ('\u003cem\u003emeditate\u003c\/em\u003e', '\u003cem\u003edream\u003c\/em\u003e'). Whether these are feverish dreams or the rumbles and static of the Network, Daisy Ray makes herself omnipotent, both a comforting and a slightly menacing figure, like \u003cstrong\u003eLain\u003c\/strong\u003e in the eponymous series.
