You know that kind of music you hear when you go to see a show at a nightclub by an artist that you know is just going to be a whole different kind of show? Like these beautifully strange electronic yet organic tones and beats right before the first time you are gonna see someone like Bjork or Tricky or Squarepusher, and its so modern and atmospheric and sexy and creepy, like you feel you are on the set of Blade Runner or some other futuristic kind of movie? Everything feels new and unknown while this super modern rain drenched spy theme rumbles through the floor and David Lynch is sitting off in the corner chatting with Donnie Darko and ‘The Man from Another Place’ (oh Michael J. Anderson, you are oh so great). Thats what this CD sounds like. Brilliant stuff, for your headphones, or even an interesting little dinner party.

“September” paints a rainbow of fragile sounds with percussive ingenuity and a feel for deep textures – shimmering neon sweeps of melody engulf tricky percussive pops and clicks in a way not a thousand miles removed from the sparse love-story-telling of Dub Tractor or the lullaby minimalism and effervescence of Mr Xela himself. Music that doesn’t necessarily stick to conventional means but that somehow manages to make itself accessable to all who approach it – a combination of ingenuity and emotional vulnerability that sets this label off to the kind of start we dreamt of when we launched CCO a good few years back. Absolutely gorgeous.” – Boomkat
