Review :
Hey kids what about a little christmas gift? It's Sunday, December 24th and on this freezy xmas eve I got the chance to listen to the new Amon Tobin album... I must admit I really don't endorse the whole xmas shebang but here I am, taking this listening session as a nothing less thand a supa-cool gift.

Hum... Amon Tobin, supa-cool?? Ain't that the thing you'd rather put along with some Will Smith character or some Bart Simpson joke? Hell yeah. But what the heck - the best christmas movie ever is in my eyes Tim Burton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas", and I'm an Amon-addict ever since the second album, so this "Foley Room" one is just the perfect thing for today.

Ever heard of a foley room? It's s the place where the sound effects are recorded for films. I can already hear you thinking: "so after the 'Splinter Cell' soundtrack Amon Tobin has finally found his niche is horror movies and videogames scores?". Thankfully you'd be totally wrong. This title only implies that the artist has widened up the scope of his sound, recording lotsa real-life sounds and sound effects from all over the world with high-sensivity mikes.

So has he gone all minimal like a big part of the German scene? Nope. No house or techno stuff here, we stay in pure Amon Tobin soundscapes and structures. If a comparison had to be made, I'd say for example that if sound-manipulator Herbert is 10% genius and 90% rock'n'roll, then Amon Tobin prefers to stay focused on the first 10%.

Take the first single, "Bloodstone", which opens the album with guests The Kronos Quartet. It feels like their tuning session is what Amon recorded, deconstructed an reconstructed in an De Vinci kind of perfectionism! The "Big Furry Head" track is another god example, with its roaring lions, melancolic strings, industrial textures and jungle sounds, all perfectly fitting together as an obvious thing you could never have thought of.

Overall, the album sounds even more an otherwordly mashing-up of styles than before, with musique-concrete and drum'n'bass clashing over psychedelic effects, cinematic chords, rock riffs, hip hop and jungle beats, angelic backgrounds... the list goes on and on, but don't think for one second you'll get lost in a maze of music. This is forward-thinking at his best, with Amon Tobin pushing the boundaries of his art in uncharted territories, for his best and most consistent album yet... again!

For info on Ce'Cile go to myspace.com/cecile.
This was listed on the USA/Canada release schedule, first as "Amon Tobin with Ce'Cile", and biography on Ce'Cile's MySpace page indicates she collaborate with Amon Tobin, so it all semmed right... then the release schedule got updated and listed then "60Hz with Ce'Cile", then on the next update, the release disappeared! Don't know if this has been scrapped or not...

Amon Tobin - Chaos Theory
(2xLP/CD/DVD) Ninja Tune ZEN100/ZENCD100/ZENDVA100, 2005-01

Info :
L'orfèvre brésilien du breakbeat concassé prouve en deux opus en moins de 6 mois qu'il n'a toujours pas d'égal dans son domaine. Son précédent album, "Out From Out Where", qui date déjà de la fin 2002, évoquait déjà l'univers des jeux vidéos les plus trippants de l'époque ("Wipeout", par exemple), et le "Collaborations EP" de 2003 (avec Kid Koala, Bonobo, P-Love, Steinski, Doubleclick et des remixes de Prefuse 73, Kid 606, Topo Gigio et Boom Bip) ne pouvait suffire à apaiser les fans de plus en plus nombreux du jeune homme. Que cela ne tienne, ils doivent tous se sentir bien mieux depuis. En effet, en Juillet 2004 dernier sortait un éblouissant CD mixé dans la série "Solid Steel", enregistré à Melbourne en Décembre 2003 avec un laptop et le logiciel de platines virtuelles Final Scratch. Une bonne heure d'electro-transe drum'n'bass psychée à tomber par terre, histoire d'attendre le nouvel album paisiblement. Mais surtout, au début de l'année 2005 sortait une véritable petite bombe dans l'industrie du disque: la bande originale du jeu vidéo best-seller Splinter Cell (troisième du nom), signée d'Amon Tobin. Cela pouvait donc sembler évident depuis longtemps, et bien Ninja Tune et Ubisoft l'ont fait! Et une fois encore, El Amon a giflé tout son monde. Après avoir enregistré un vrai groupe, avec cordes, flûtes, orgue hammond, mellotron, guitare, basse, percussions diverses et variées, et même une chorale, il sample toutes ces pistes organiques, malaxe et hâche à sa sauce, sorte de Harissa Aphex Twin sud-américaine au top de sa forme. L'éditeur du jeu vidéo est tellement emballé que le disque sort bien avant le jeu, précédé d'un mp3 gratuit diffusé sur Amazon, et les ventes de Splinter Cell explosent à sa sortie. CQFD.

DJ Food - Dark Lady / Zen CD :
Dj Food mettent encore le feu à n'importe quel dancefloor avec leur classique "Dark Lady", breakbeat technoïde avec du jazz dedans imparable.

Un inédit d'Amon Tobin! Chers amateurs de drum'n'bass gothiquement psychédélique, d'ambiences oppressantes et de jungle jazz déstructuré, vous en avez de la chance. Avant même que le prochain film du réalisateur de "Blade" ne soit sorti dans nos contrées, en voici le morceau-titre, composé spécialement pour l'occasion.

Amon Tobin - Verbal Remixes & Collaborations EP
(12"/CDS) Ninja Tune ZEN12138/ZENCDS138, 2003-07

Info :
Que vous aimiez Amon Tobin, Kid Koala ou les deux, vous aimerez ce track qui représente l'idéal d'une collaboration entre deux artistes, quand leurs talents respectifs arrivent à fusionner à ce point. Entre l'ambience cinématique et joyeusement déprimée de sieur Amon et le sample d'espèce de guimbarde déglinguée avec lequel Kid Koala vient gentiment nous tirer la larme, les contraires s'attirent et on pense visiter une petite maison des horreurs dans un vieux cirque rustique et rouillé. Une fois la visite terminée... forcément on y retourne.
