Reviews

Ok I'm reviewing this one album, but in fact it's a blanket review of all his stuff...

I have reviewed a few Spirograph albums and since then they have been re-uploaded so the reviews have gone.

I will now do my bit to point you, the reader, towards a very good electronic producer "Spirograph".

This is the kind of music that I fail to categorise and was once termed IDM. IDM sounds good as an acronym but the actual words it stands for are a little weak. It is basically using dance music equipment in a less formulaic way - eg not depending on the 4-4 beat, builds, naff vocals or other traits of dance. The result being something to listen to like music, rather than dance to like a stoned stoner.

Negatives that came positive - Spirograph uses more piano than I would wish for and sometimes you can hear the quantizing the computer applied - yet he proved to me that, on the whole, it can be done well.

He has formed a style for himself which is not out and out unique but can be spotted as his and thats a big positive for him - I can tell I'm listening to a Spirograph tune instantly even when playing lots of similar music on shuffle. He has a sound thats his.

I don't normally write this much and we can all see why - it's because i don't write that well - so now I leave it to the music.

This is his Professional Sample and from here you should no doubt come back for more and download his other stuff too.

Cet album est sympa, bien fait, bien construit. Il est très électronique, avec de gros sons. A mon goût, il manquerait un peu de rythme, de mélodie, mais bon... J'ai bien aimé la 2°, elle est très intéressante. En 2 mots, bon album. A+
