Picked this one up at lunch whilst waiting for the bus home (having a
record shop next to the bus stop is not good for my wallet).
Anyway...
Title: Auteurs Vs. mu-ziq
Date: Out now
Label: Hut (Virgin)
Format: 2x12" CD
Thought this was just a 12" EP but it turns out to be an album. Six tracks
over 2 12"s. Bloody wierd stuff. Bloody good stuff. Had never heard any
Auteurs stuff before this... in fact I still don't think I've heard any
Auteurs stuff. The label (No track listing btw) says written by <someone>,
Produced and arranged by Mike Paradinas. And I think he arranged most of
the other guys stuff out of it.
I only had chance for a brief listen... the last track stood out as a
stunner; light jungley break (one of the best I've heard) over blurred
guitars (yes, guitars feature (slightly), with an odd vocal). Lots of
mu-ziq squeaks and squiggles, tonnes of bass... Has quite a slow feel to
it all, definitely ambientish.
Stunning cover btw.
