Nikoo Friends & Family (Beep! Beep! Back Up The Truck)
After their self-titled debut issue being involved in high-voltage noise pop with one very chart potential-related track (You`ve Got A Strange Effect On You) the 5-piece combo from Eindhoven, the Netherlands threw gasoline into the flames and their brand new exclamation is ready to haunt upon new victims. Indeed, the 7-track album yearns for more sonic abundance, approximating to the 80`s huge names like Pixies, The Jesus & Mary Chain, Dinosaur Jr, Catherine Wheel and My Bloody Valentine (however, the shades of Loveless can be detected for as well). Don`t be misunderstood - despite of famous names suggested here the record is a very feature one. Rough yet variable rhythms, at times doo wop-alike vocal shimmers and simple yet straightforwardly hitting call and responses, raunchy, towering exultation-realized guitar feedbacks, and nihilistic electronic-based endings. It sounds like a thunderstorm rolling over you, however, not hurting you (except your ears, of course). In any cases, if your preferations are keen for such contemporary groups like A Place To Bury Strangers, This Lonely Crowd, and Moon Runners, this music is thought for you. However, it is strongly recommended.

Aloo Klangbild (Astor Bell)
The first track (TreiToTrei) by the Leipzig-based artist and musical activist/disc jockey Aloo is built up on melodica-injected chords, dub-inflected shades and 4/4 beats, sounding like a electronic remix of Augustus Pablo`s oeuvre. And indeed, the Jamaican-influenced vibe will be presented in the coming tracks too. Though, on the other side, his further sonic outlook will be grown over into a more atmospheric and soothing shape, having apparent hints at ambient music on its own. For instance, at Ambient Vall can be detected for dystopian, digital-based experimental ambient. At Harmonium Pump can be heard beauteously progressing orchestrations, "occasional" sonic minutiae, all in all, suiting into downtempo moulds. The rest of 3 tracks have also drenched in masterful sensitivity. Something similar from the dub perspective is Duanel`s Noches de Repilo (2010, Camada) I am listening to now as well.
