Chord - Year As A Ghost (2012)



9.2

/Electronic pop, Dreamwave, House, Deep house, Downtempo, Club dance/ 

Comment: indeed, by listening to this 7-track album you could imagine yourself to be a lone ghost for a while. The whole consists of airy piano chords and ethereal vowel whiffs which are waded in by an array of variegating rhythms, concrete sounds-tinged and orchestrated synth stripes at times. However, all these sparawling particles are settled down to wobble within the realm of pouting house vibes backdropped with acidic piano hammering and soulful tuning, at times having a trip through universes which are freed from the burden of gravitation. In a word, the issue because of being soaringly idealistic can be considered a tool to get yourself out from this world. Would you like to be an escapist approximately for an hour?

Juanitos - OrganiXperiment (2012)



9.2

/Psychedelia, Funk, Surf rock, Alternative, Acid pop, Latin music, Exotica pop, Chill out, Lounge music/ 

Comment: hooray, France-based musician Juan Naveira aka Mr Juan (also known in regard to his side projects Miss Emma, and Limbo Deluxe) is back with a barrage of psychedelic organ sounds, seamless surf licks, dizzy funk grooves, and sly latin motives mixed flickers. Similarly to his previous issues it is highly amusing and chilling. If you dare to call it as "muzak" then you should admit it is a sort of arty muzak whose
inspirational sources do hark back to whimsical space age pop and elfish exotica/tiki pop in addition to the aforementioned sections. However, there are even up some motorik elements related to the aesthetics of krautrock, and indie vibes. Indeed, I have never perceived the use of synthesizers by him before it. In a nutshell, it is a fabulous listening experience.

Binärpilot - You Can't Stop Da Funk (2006)



9.0

/Chiptune, Electronic pop, Robopop, 8-bit, Funk, Electro pop, World fusion, Poptronica/

Comment: popular Norwegian producer Alexander Støver aka Binärpilot`s 4-track issue does encapsulate a wide range of styles and genres veering away from 70`s Bowie-esque funk propulsions and contemporary rnb appearances to more precise electro cadences and mechanic groove appealed territories where robot-tweaked rhythms are traded to sawtooth and squarewave-shaped rhythms, and on the contrary. There is also up the third dimension which is closely related to slight world music/Orient-fused progressions where you experience both Jewish and Arabic patterns. In a word, we can´t do it.
