"Eno's love child..., 29 Jan 2004

This review is from: Modus Operandi (Audio CD)

I first heard some of the tracks on this album on different soundtracks of films the titles of which I forget, the music I heard reminded me of 70’s ambient master “Eno” but with bigger beats and vintage keyboard sounds.

This is the kind of album I like to put on when I don’t want to hear vocals and just beats are the order of the day. The best example of this is the title track "Modus Oerandi"

In a strange way the music reminds me of another instrumental artist of the 70’s “Jean Michelle Jarre”, but “Photek has added bigger bass and drum sounds to beef up his ideas which are not dissimilar in my option to the afore mentioned performers.

So if you want soundscapes with big beats give this album a try, it may take a few listens but the extra work is worth it in the end…
