Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

The child who is heard glumly complaining that he wants to put on some music in the opening of Sorry I Make You Lush will have trouble getting through Wagon Christ's album, as will anyone else who is expecting the niceties of conventional choruses or melodies. But when one realises that Wagon Christ is yet another alias for the guru-like Luke Vibert, you know not to expect these things. Even coming from Ninja Tune, a label famed for its electronic eclecticism, this one still sticks out as being left-field. All the usual Vibert staples are here: fresh beats, a mix of squelchy analogue and digital sounds, speech samples. But rather than Mr Scruff-style light-hearted funky dance, the impetus here is on creating a firm groove. The songs range from some credible hip hop-style funk on "Kwikwidetrax" (complete with totally incongruous children's voices), to spacey atmospherics on the opening "Saddic Gladdic". The best is saved until last with what can only be described as a cross between updated Motown and Cornelius. The basslines are supple, the production is suitably spacey and atmospheric, and though some cuts may drag on slightly too long ("Sci-Fi Staircase" being the worst offender), they are all refreshingly funky and danceable. --Thom Allot

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't apologise!, 23 Jun 2004
By T. Robinson - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I've been a fan of Wagon Christ aka Luke Vibert aka Plug etc etc. since I heard his genius "Drum and Bass for Papa" LP. This LP stands up to that one, and his other true classic "Big Soup". All the Vibert trademarks are there...genuinely funny samples, expertly sequenced loops and (as a result) hooks to die for.

Unlike his contemporaries like u-ziq and Aphex Twin, Luke hasn't got bogged down in trying to make really complicated 2,000bpm polyrhythmic beats that you can't dance to..he just lets the beats roll and concentrates on building fantastic melodies, and making coherent tracks that are just a joy to listen to.

In dance music terms he's a veteran now, and really deserves more recognition outside the whole "Dance" cul-de-sac. This is the kind of music you don't need to be a rabid clubber, nor a dieheard Vinyl junkie to enjoy...its just darn good electronic music written by one of the great unsung heroes of his generation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality dance music with a sense of humour, 25 Jun 2004
Wagon Christ is an interesting musician, recording under many monikers for many labels. For Ninja Tune he writes what could be classed as cheesy music but beyond your initial reaction are a whole host of hugely inventive ideas.

Sometimes the album will depart into Aphex influenced lunar acid as on 'Sci Fi Stair Case' or 'Sorry I Make You Lush' .'Im Singing' has Luke singing on it I think for the first time, 'Shadows' has a beautiful female vocal on top of lush strings. Other elements in this album include funk and hip hop. A very eclectic album by anyones standards. But ultimately Luke Vibert has created a sound all his own... kitschtronica!!

For me this is his best album since Throbbing Pouch the man is an absurd genius....

3.0 out of 5 stars Pleasant at times, but essentially a bit bland, 5 Jul 2004
By L. HAMILTON-WARGENT (England, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm left with the feeling that I've heard it all before, 80's synths, chopped up layered samples, it reminds me of early Paul Hardcastle in places. The collages of sounds he creates do amble along in a kind of uniform but nonetheless interesting way, but on the whole its hardly unique or inspiring. The album highlights would have to be Shadows and tracks 9 and 10. Ninja Tune fans will rave about this....but in an attempt to be more objective I'd say its nice background music, but its not great and certainly nothing to get exicted about. The BBC will probably use it for Gardening programmes....
