This guy is based in Barcelona and this debut electronic album is all over the shop. All over the house. Take "Oro y Sangre" for example, the screams are there; it's sinister haunted-house for halloween. The Balearic feel to opener "Depak Ine" is very different. Talbot follows the Animal Collective inspiration of sampling crickets and brings beanbag-house for starry nights.
Other standouts include rhe old-school style of "When the Past was Present" and the scuba-deep "Missing You." The commendable thing here is that the styles don't jar; they gel. They don't stutter or splutter; the melt together like butter. John Talbot has the potential to become one of the best electronic acts and DJ's in the world without ever being a commercial cuntwolf of a punk.
