Matias Aguayo

ha no, in that the amazing sounds battle with the bits that make me flinch and i end up not going back to it to sort out which are which

best dance release of year sooo omar-s for me, and i think the new redshape may end up alongside it

oh and black meteoric star!!! yes.

i mean if we're talking house/techno end not funky/dubstep/wvs.

srsly this aguayo album could be so much better if the amount of "spooky" voices was halved or possibly quartered, that fluttering synth marimba melody at the end of "desde rusia" is pretty irresistible

they're a lot better when they actually break into a proper vocal chant as on "ritmo juárez" rather than doing that constant sub-beatboxing shite

haven't heard this yet but lex totally otm about the MJS record

The MJS vocals kind of split between awful and intrusive and annoying (Could You Be Loved, Milano Model) and perfect for the record (Creepy, Ocean 0304).

I'm really enjoying this on first listen - I don't hear the vocals as "comedy voices" at all and certainly not in the Mungolian Jet Set way.

anyone go to fabric on saturday?

enjoying this record a lot i must say. dew dew dew dew dew dew deeewwww deeeewwww

It's essentially acapella house music, isn't it? I like this record best when there are no instruments involved at all, just the sound of voices imitating the clicks and snaps and detuning pling plong noises you'd treat as standard in minimal. It feeds perfectly into my argument upthread about Aguayo totally getting the inherent silliness and ridiculousness of even the most po-faced European techno.

I like this a lot too. One of the most refreshing records I've heard in a while.

like this a lot but up there with Are you really lost and After Love? Not quite sure.

I don't really think I've given this a fair shake yet but up to now... hasn't really clicked like I would have expected, am a bit on the fence :/

He does a remix on the new Afro-Colombian comp on Soul Jazz called "Jende Ri Palenge". The whole collection is great, and it's worth much more than a Matias obscurity.
