Album Title: Electric Flowers
Label: Flexitrax
Cat.No: Flex002
Format: CD/ Digital Download
Release Date: April 3rd 2008
These 13 tracks are the end result of many chilled out afternoons and vibey evenings spent in Xfiles’ North London studio, looking for that ideal organic/ digital balance.
In other words, the perfect excuse for hanging out, having a laugh, getting in the zone and pressing record.
This album embraces the endless, on the fly, cut and paste, instant mash up possibilities of Protools and Ableton and avoiding digital perfection at all costs
review from desitune4u
Anyone who likes Asian dance music will love this and the way it combines some dark beats (‘Serene Smile') with pure positive happy vibes (‘Electric Flowers') makes it all the more tasteful. The essence of what makes so much on here work is Xfile being a technically solid producer, developing sounds rather than picking them from a preset basket. Aref Durvesh, who has worked with nearly all the top Asian underground groups very rarely puts a step wrong and the back up cast of singers and rappers merely add to the flavours. ‘Electric Flowers' gets a strong 8 out of 10!!!! |
