This record left Martin feeling happy.
This is a real gem. Perhaps the best Mobeer release of them all. Especially cd 2 surprises with it's well crafted song writing and clever rhythm programming. Goes down even better with mulled wine... If I was santa, this would be on repeat in the sleigh... Review date: 04 December 2008
What we say
This record left our Brian feeling happy.
As water trickles down the inside of my head, pouring from these rather ragged headphones courtesy of Brael, I'm transported to pastures new, away from Lydia Lunch devouring Suicide, away from this cracked office, stacked high with people's vinyl dreams and chuffing cardboard mountains, jiffy bag spectres and cold cups of tea. Into an organic realm of post ambient quiet-rock, glistening electronics woven around woozy keys, discreet bass strokes and layered percussion, thus reminding me of a more pensive Four Tet on opener 'Morning', then 'Magic' opens with some of those old classic Boards of Canada/Bibio style synth washes before drifting along on a bed of pedal steel & acoustic guitar and muted percussion. Very sweet. 'Last Night' is a remix of a Remote Viewer and has an electronic cricket glitch beat overlaid with some top languid synths, zinging astral effects and acoustic psychedelia. Absolutely gorgeous! Now that's just one 3" CD of 2. I ain' t got time to review the other but with 7 tracks over the course of one of those delightful double pack, beer mat mounted things on the esteemed (and ridiculously collectible Mobeer) you'd be doing yourself an injustice passing this one up. This Untitled lovely Numbered of 300 in the usual brown stamped wage packet thang.
What the label says:
following on from living langauage, their collaborative release with Tokyo Bloodworm earlier this year, we were left here at moteer:: with a selection of tracks by Brael that we just couldn't see slip down the side of the sofa and get lost like an old 50p. so we stuck our hands down the side of that musical furniture, picked off the fluff and sent it down the road to our micro brewery. what we brewed up is this beautiful little bundle of mobeer goodness, which we know your gonna love, nurture and cradle. we're charging more than 50p for it though. sorry. Brael for those of you that weren't listening at the back are the duo of Steve Dannemiller and Joachim Hero. a couple of old american friends who seemingly turn their hands to any instruments left flung around the flat and proceed to coax wonderous melody, noise and all that business. so expect vibraphone, trumpets, slide guitar, clicks, drums, voices. pop music in short. containing extensive re workings of a couple of tracks from living language some beautiful new material and a remix of the remote viewers 'last night you said goodbye...' this little 2x 3'' cd comes packaged in the usual hand made mobeer :: way and is limited to 300 copies. |
