"DE9: Transitions" (11/01/2005) Electronic Hawtin, Richie, Mute RecordsOne of the masters of minimalist techno, electronica artist Richie Hawtin serves up another superb program with DE9: TRANSITIONS. Hawtin's creations are extremely sophisticated and cerebral, full of carefully crafted atmospheres and subtle detail that passes through the listener's mind like a chain of associations. At the same time, the music is pulsing, primal, and full of molecular urgency. This is IDM that works both on the dancefloor and in the armchair, and is equally engaging either way.

"Everything Ecstatic Parts I & II" (01/24/2006) Electronic Hebden, Kieran, Domino Recording Company USA (USA)An unusual companion piece to Four Tet's lauded 2005 full-length outing, EVERYTHING ECSTATIC, PARTS I & II presents a DVD of videos for each track on the former album and a CD EP. The latter disc features two reworked tunes from ECSTATIC--a considerably extended version of the glitchy "Turtle Turtle Up" and a percussive variation on "Sun Drums and Soil"--and three additional tracks, including the pulsing "Watching Wavelength" and the frenetic (and aptly titled) "This Is Six Minutes." Although this release isn't the best thing for newcomers, it's sure to please diehard fans of the revered British electronica artist. DVD Features: Track Listing 1. A Joy 2. Smile Around The Face 3. Fuji Check 4. Sun Drums & Soil 5. Clouding 6. High Fives 7. Turtle Turtle Up 8. Sleep, Eat Food, Have Visions 9. You Were There With Me 10. And Then Patterns

"18: B Sides" (02/01/2006) Electronic Moby, V2 Records (USA)Contains a bonus DVD which features videos from "18:..", a live concert from Glastonbury in 2003, outtakes & bonus songs, and a megamix. Personnel includes: Moby (vocals, various instruments); Azure Ray, Jennifer Price, The Shining Light Gospel Choir, Angie Stone, MC Lyte (vocals). Displaying a knack for keeping his name in the public eye and his music in their ears, Moby once again follows the path blazed by his PLAY with b-sides reissue. This time around, 18 B SIDES ups the ante by also including a bonus DVD chock-a-block full of extras, including a complete live set from a 2003 Glastonbury show. As for the CD side of the coin, the Connecticut native continues to traffic in the kind of compelling dance music that kicks off enough of an ethereal edge to blend in and soothe rather than disrupt a cool mood. "Nearer" brings together swirling synths and a gospel vocal that'll make you feel like you're waiting to meet a higher power, the gorgeous "Stay" comes off like a Velvet Underground-era Lou Reed outtake, and the lush "String Electro" features an unobtrusive beat gilded by an anonymous female vocal. With the music serving as an appetizer for this collection, the bonus DVD serves as a meaty main course that not only includes the aforementioned concert, but outtakes and demos from his last two albums, videos, and much more.

"The Best of Lamb 1996-2004: Best Kept Secrets" (07/13/2004) Electronic Lamb (Electronic), Koch Records (USA)Recording information: 1996 - 2004. Lamb got tagged as trip-hop when its first album came out in 1997, but as the early songs on this compilation attest, the Manchester duo was actually closer to drum-and-bass or jazz-inspired jungle than the more dub-blunted beats of contemporaries Tricky, Massive Attack, and Portishead. Defined by the go-for-broke vocals of Louise Rhodes and the icicles-down-the-spine electric stand-up bass of Andrew Barlow, Lamb is really in its own world. "Cotton Wool" features almost abstract jungle-beat sputtering, while "Gorecki" brings in sweeping synths, piano, and tablas to lift Rhodes's vocals towards a transcendent spiritual rush (a la peak Moby). As this disc moves chronologically through Lamb's catalogue, one finds the balance slowly swinging away from tingly drum-and-bass freak-outs ("Little Things" and "B Line") towards more string-infused balladry ("Bonfire" and "Lullaby"). By the time BEST KEPT SECRETS gets to "Gabriel" and "Stronger," Lamb's sound has grown smooth and seductive enough to be ready for late-night FM radio, while losing none of its underground trip-hop edge.

"Florida" (04/19/2005) Electronic Diplo, Big Dada (USA)This release contains a bonus DVD. Personnel: Diplo; Martina Topley-Bird, P.E.A.C.E, Sandra Melody, Vybz Kartel. Prolific DJ and producer Diplo (aka Diplodocus or Steven Wesley Pentz) garnered international acclaim by introducing electronic/hip hop artist MIA to the world. He was already known in underground circles through his work with partner DJ Low Budget on their Philly-based club nights Hollertronix and its sought after mixtapes, but FLORIDA marked his solo debut. Expertly mixing hip-hop, psychedelia, and rock with various electronic sounds and vocal samples, the album focuses on more downtempo styles while still leaving room for bass-heavy dance floor beats. On "Money Power Respect" a sullen cello sample stretches across skittering booty bass and sizzling tape-hiss loops, morphing into wobbly keyboard samples and vocal cuts. Conversely, "Into the Sun" lays it down heavy on the psych, featuring flute samples, backward loops, and lush vocal edits from Marina Topley-Bird. Like all the tracks, though, it's backed by a killer downtempo beat. This is a Diplo classic.
