Rei Harakami: Unrest
Sublime Records SBLCD5024UK
All tracks composed and arranged by Rei Harakami 1995-1997.
This CD is a beautiful slice of IDM which should appeal to the Fila Brazillia
set out there (?). This CD reminds me at times of elegant, melodic Wamdue
tech house (eg the Peacefrog CD,) as well some of the more upbeat, eclectic
moments on Pork or Apollo. The production values are high here, and the
results are crisp and clear. A variety of musical styles including electro and
some breakbeat are combined to produce a very pleasing tech-house result.
Highly recommended: 90/100.
