Various Oxygen Spectral Concepts (USA)

If you didn’t believe me when I just went on about the States being the planet’s electronic melting pot, then this ought to prove my argument and shut you up for good (and, frankly, about time too.) A very enjoyable album, and half the fun comes from trying to pin it down; there are a few psychedelic moments, a lot of progressive moments, and in the midst of all of this it creates a new genre: a kind of slick, global-consciousness house music that’s deep, smooth, and very switched on. If psychedelic dancefloor mashing is your gol, psyreviews firmly suggests you try before you buy; but the openminded hom listener, relishing in class contributions from Etnoscope, Phosphene and the wonderful IndiaDrop, there’s enough depth and innovation to keep you going for weeks.
