This album is just amazing. Right from the other-worldy synth stabs of 'In' to the lovely ambience and great beats of the closer 'Viimo'. It encompasses Autechre-esque beat manipulation, Boards of Canada melodies and Aphex-style weirdness but has Lassi Nikko's own personal touch of unique genius imprinted on each track. Other tracks worth noting are 'Brothomstates Ipxen', 'Kava' and 'Mdrmx'. Spellbinding stuff - I just can't get enough of it! Pure Finnish genius.

There's is nothing in Claro that really stands up and slaps you in the face. It's a carefully laid out arrangement of effective melodies presented in delicately constructed sythesised sound with the occasional off-kilter percussion, and at first you might think it just another example of poor-man's Autechre. However, I found my affection for it grew substantially and I learnt to appreciate the space in the recording. I'd say Brothomstates are good at thinking "that's enough, let's not fiddle with that any more" leaving us with something fascinatingly uncomplicated.

You have to appreciate the audacity and supreme confidence of the beginning of Claro. The first track "In" is a slowl, haunting electro string piece which sets the darkish and melancholy tone of Claro perfectly. After the opening the album doesnt let down fans of Brothomstates or Warp.
The albums beautiful and creative melodies can be enojyed even if the genre isnt to your liking.
"KivesQ" is another banging track which could actually turn into a hit if it's released as a single.
Consistency is the key word of this album. Tracks differ in their style ( all share the same melancholy ) but none of them are weak, there's something for everyone here.

Finnish Genius!
Superb and addictive. Yeah there's plenty of nods to the other Warp family members, but that's no crime. Essential.

as it should be! :D
If you, like me, know Lassi Nikkos music through the demoscene and those lovely Orange demos - you won't be disapointed! Read more
