Blissy tricks



No, it's none too minimal - & no less delicious for that. The techno cognoscenti may not rate Luciano's Tribute to the Sun, but to these ears Sun, Day and Night is a superbly zestful, percussion-drenched treat for a Sunday: languid yet propulsive, studded with blissy tricks, claps, whacks & sparkle...


Update: as for the rest of the album, I've only heard Celestial, Hang for Bruno & Metodisma so far. Although the hang showcase never recovers from its rapid degeneration into sub-Herb Albert cheese, the other two (notwithstanding a self-consciously 'celestial' interlude on the otherwise bone-dry former) exhibit a crispness & invention that belie Tribute's fairly sphincter-clenchingly awful cover...

Important: LMYE only makes music available that artists/labels have chosen to share freely. Let us know if something here shouldn't be.
