Product Description

Description
On several tracks on this full-length debut, the Canadian ambient musician Sandro Perri, who records under the name Polmo Popo, mates rhythmic slabs of static with conventional instruments and sequencers to irresistible dancehall effect, elsewhere harnessing and manipulating monolithic white noise with skittering electronic rivulets. "Rottura" is perhaps the most conventional cut here, its insistent trance beat pulsing under washes of mournful slide guitar and synthesizer.

4.0 out of 5 stars throbbing non-format anti-techno, 19 Jul 2004
By Mr. R. K. Jones "www.nothingatall.net" (Rhyl, Denbighshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
okay, so the 8 tracks are a lot 'dancier' than any of those on the constellation release, which is by no means a bad thing. its just something almost unexpected. i was expecting more of the slide guitar and chill-out beats. this does contain that, but in a much different form. this time its dance beats and electronic shuffling. the second track 'oarca' is definatly in the realm of dance music..it thumps along in some kind of eeriy way. and its greatly addictive

in fact the 4 most addictive songs are those released originally by sandro on his audi-sensa imprint. each one is a throbbing and brooding dance track of absolute genius. the guitars slide about whilst electrics buzz away. more and more layers are added until its a totally addictive puzzle of beats, pulses and sounds. not once on this record does it get boring either.

as a dance album..this is not your average club superstar dj release..this is something much much better and a million miles away from that. this is evolution in a deep and intense way.
