Album review: Conrad Schnitzler – ‘Paracon: The Paragon Session Outtakes 1978-1979’ – more solid-state wizardry from the Kluster genius’s archives

  • March 21, 2021
  • Chris Sawle
Outtakes these nominally may be, but a decade on these tracks would have all seen a parallel life in the 12" and the like; a format which was only just starting to find its viability Stateside at this point in the Seventies. And remember not just that these ten tracks are culled from a year or more's intense creative fire, but that those sessions gave birth to three albums. It's an album for intense post-dusk savouring, soundscapes to fall sideways down the rabbit hole into, deep and otherworldly sonic immersion from one of the greatest electronic music brains.

Album review: Mapstation – ‘My Frequencies, When We’: playful, immensely thoughtful tronica

  • February 22, 2021
  • Chris Sawle
My Frequencies, When We may not flaunt its wares with garish insouciance; but like so many of the albums that end up welded to your turntable, it keeps on enticing you back for more exploration, further interaction. It occasionally raises a grin and equally occasionally, an eyebrow; it's varied in its approach yet thoroughly cohesive. It's an immensely thoughtful record

ALBUM REVIEW: CAMERA – ‘Prosthuman’: the current Berlin motorik

  • February 15, 2021
  • Chris Sawle
SO, LET’S talk krautrock. In many ways, it’s all about the rhythm, isn’t it? Think Can; think Jaki Liebezeit, that perfect control, poise, underpinning. Motorik, propulsion, but also tremendous fills…

ALBUM REVIEW: Richard von der Schulenberg – ‘Moods And Dances’: a fun, exotique library music trip

  • January 25, 2021
  • Chris Sawle
Moods And Dances is the sort of album you cheekily slip onto the deck at a very groovy soiree at about, ooh, midnight, to bring some bizarre and spacey dimensions to proceedings and during which at least two of your friends turn to you and say with a bewildered grin: "Wow, what is this?"
