Rating: ecstatic This record left Sue Jarnagon feeling ecstatic.

This CD was so amazing. This artist taps into sounds that are magical, eerie, wild and wonderful. The rhythms, beats and music stay with you long after the CD is over. I LOVED this CD. It was one of the best of this type I've heard. This young musician is really a genius.

What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Ant feeling ecstatic.

Its an absolute pleasure to get to review Flourescent Grey's 'Lying On The Floor Mingling with God In a Tijuana Motel Room Next Door To A Vetinary Supply Store' We've been hammering the promo of this in the office over the last few weeks. Its one of the best electronic albums I've heard in ages. It's really all over the place. Think of the best bits of Autechre, Team Doyobi and Pthalocyanine. Strange sounds from another world collide with electronic noise, found sounds and cutting edge synthesis. There is an eastern vibe weaving in and out of some of the tracks. The arrangements are complex and you never know what's coming next. Quality experimental electronics at its finest on Isolate / Record Label records. Also in on Record Label records is 'Dastgaah' by Sote. Again this has an eastern vibe to it and tons of bizarre sounds. Its really difficult to describe this music really. All I can say is that its fresh, original, forward thinking and totally worthy of investigation. As is the aforementioned Brian English CD and der Kush Arora release which is a fantastic fusion of eastern sounds and electronics.

9. Ragga jungle nagauta (pt 2 of 2)
10. A Peruvian shaman sits down to make IDM on his laptop
11. Melting fiber-optic necklace
12. Liquefied break-dancing
13. Study for live drums and piano quantization (pompous academic generic experimental title)
14. Morphing song

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.
