Tricky: Ununiform review – stark and slinky
(False Idols/!K7)
by Kitty Empire via Electronic music | The Guardian
Strange things are afoot on Tricky’s 13th LP: its quality, for one. The trip-hop maverick’s former foil, Martina Topley-Bird, guests for the first time in 14 years; a sombre treat. Elsewhere, Russian rappers jostle against a perplexing cover version of Hole’s Doll Parts. The former are excellent, with the lairy Scriptonite juxtaposed against Tricky’s malevolent drawl on Same As It Ever Was (a Talking Heads reference, surely). The latter? If only Tricky had sung it, rather than one of his myriad guests. Throughout, Tricky creates a claustrophobic world full of stark bass lines, pop digressions and slinky Bristol moments; his duet with Francesca Belmonte, New Stole, is particularly moreish.

The Horrors: V review – spindly indie survivors hit their sweet spot
Against the odds, the Horrors’ fifth album is their best yet, with Faris Badwan’s commanding, world-weary vocals adding to the synthesised thrills and sparkling guitar-pop
Let us briefly take a detour down memory lane. It is 2007 and, as a contestant on the most recent series of Big Brother has so eloquently put it, “there’s a new music that’s taking over our country and it’s called … ‘indie’”. The Pigeon Detectives bestride the Top 20. The second Razorlight album has just been certified five times platinum. The pages of the Observer play host to a feature that wonders aloud how Bloc Party will cope with being propelled to superstardom as a result of their new album: “A zeitgeist-defining record that rips up the rock rulebook.”
Strange days indeed, but imagine the consternation you could cause were you able to offer everyone a glimpse into the future, a world 10 years hence where Razorlight are headlining not Reading and Leeds but a VW campervan convention in Llangollen; where the lead singer of the Kaiser Chiefs is now best-known as a judge on a talent show, and where the frontman of the Arctic Monkeys has left Yorkshire, changed his accent and now favours the world not with gritty vignettes of provincial Britain, but updates from the frontline of life as a swashbuckling multi-millionaire cocksman, rampant amid the sun-bronzed lovelies of Hollywood.

Soft Cell – 10 of the best
In the last of this series, we look back at Soft Cell’s bleak but beautiful synthpop – from their run of Top 3 hits to their disintegration amid drug use and nervous breakdown
Likeminded art student renegades at Leeds Polytechnic in the late 70s, Dave Ball and Marc Almond originally came together to make music to accompany theatrical productions – an evolution of Almond’s developing interest in often extreme, sexual, graphic and confrontational performance art. Their first release, the short EP Mutant Moments, was funded by a £2,000 loan from Ball’s mum, and was enough to grab the attention of record label Some Bizzare, whose eccentric owner, Stevo, would go on to talent-spot some of the 80s’ best underground electronic groups. Their early single Memorabilia, from 1981, reveals just how much of the winning Soft Cell formula was already firmly in place. Claustrophobic, slightly stalker-y (“I have got to have you”) and with a brilliant electronic riff that lodged in your brain alongside the pen portrait of an obsessive collector, it was a remarkable calling card.

Letter: Pierre Henry obituary
I followed the work of Pierre Henry from his earliest compositions, including his many collaborations with my friend the choreographer Maurice Béjart. When I was appointed as artistic director and choreographer for the opening celebrations of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King in Liverpool, I was able to commission Pierre to create the world’s first electronic mass, a task he was eager to undertake.
The intention was to create a performance with two masses – the 17th-century orchestral Messa Concertata by Francesco Cavalli, followed by Pierrey’s electronic Messe de Liverpool (Liverpool Mass) – and with both works simultaneously performed by dancers. In the event Pierre’s mass was not fully realised in time for the opening celebrations starting on 26 May 1967, although an extract from the partially completed mass was heard, and a choreography created to his Musique pour les Evangiles. The completed work was issued as an LP some time later and was first heard in France.

LCD Soundsystem review – euphoric dancefloor pop reignited
The Warehouse Project, Manchester
Six years after a farewell tour, frontman James Murphy gets back under the glitterball to revive his special brand of thunderous, emotional dance music
At midnight in Manchester, blue neon bathes the bricks of a former air-raid shelter under Piccadilly station. The floor is sardined with young clubbers and ageing, ecstatic ravers, all heralding a band currently at No 1 in the US.

Gary Numan: Savage (Songs from a Broken World) review – pop gleams amid the dystopian gloom
(BMG)
Once a fading 1970s synthpop star, Gary Numan’s career has been gradually revitalised since Sugababes’ 2002 smash Freak Like Me mashed up his Are “Friends” Electric? and Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson hailed him as a pioneer of electronic industrial gloom. There’s plenty of the latter on his 21st studio album. Guitars and keyboards crash like falling slabs of granite, percussion pulses throb and synths purr ominously. Numan’s dystopian worldview hasn’t been exactly cheered by climate change or leaving Britain for Los Angeles, only to find a Trumpocalypse. “We live in a windswept hell, not even God remembers”, he sings, bleakly. However, tunefulness permeates the intensity like rays of sunshine. Huge, Cars-type banks of synthesisers fire Bed of Thorns and The End of Things and the east Asian-tinged My Name Is Ruin (featuring 11-year-old daughter Persia) is one of his catchiest songs in years. For all the retooling, the vintage Numanoid still has a pop star’s beating heart.

'We were just clowning about': how cartoon rave changed pop
Twenty-five years ago, the British charts exploded with cheap and cheerful songs such as Sesame’s Treet, Trip to Trumpton and Ebeneezer Goode, that turned a whole generation on to dance music
Underage discos could be pretty strange in the early 1990s. You’d get a blast of Nirvana; maybe even REM for the more sophisticated pre-teen. But you were also guaranteed to hear at least one example of speaker-rattling, drug-referencing rave music that borrowed samples of children’s TV tunes for its hooks – samples that its pre-teen audience was too young to have nostalgia for.

Mount Kimbie: Love What Survives review – a change of pace
(Warp)
by Isa Jaward via Electronic music | The Guardian
Since their acclaimed 2010 debut Crooks & Lovers, production duo Dominic Maker and Kai Campos, AKA Mount Kimbie, have gradually shaken off their “post-dubstep” label with tunes better suited to sticky-floored indie dives than pensive, 6am bus journeys. On this third album they’ve all but replaced their former glossy, fragmented electronica with live instrumentation, krautrock drums and vocals from James Blake, King Krule, Micachu and Andrea Balency. As tracks quickly pivot between ragged indie rock, melodic dance music and wistful, tinkly tunes, the record feels disjointed, but a few productions stand out as some of their most inventive yet, particularly the intricate weave of synth and organic sounds on James Blake collaborations We Go Home Together and How We Got By.

Zola Jesus: Okovi review – a perfect hybrid
(Sacred Bones)
by Emily Mackay via Electronic music | The Guardian
Returning to long-term label Sacred Bones after a sojourn at Mute for 2014’s relatively poppy Taiga, Nika Roza Danilova has perfected her hybrid of industrial electronics and gothic power balladry on her fifth album. Bearing aloft a forensic inquiry into mortality and loss on the wings of her formidable voice, she soars from the shuddering strings and chilly wails of Exhumed to the trip-hop grandeur of Soak and the sweeping romanticism of Witness, via Siphon’s warm assurance of unflinching support to a friend on the edge (“We’d rather clean the blood of a living man”). An album to light the way through the darkest hours.

Lunice: CCCLX CD review – doesn’t quite add up
(Lucky Me)
by Tara Joshi via Electronic music | The Guardian
In the five years since electronic duo TNGHT – Hudson Mohawke and Canadian producer Lunice – released their self-titled EP before announcing an indefinite hiatus, Mohawke has worked with artists such as Kanye West; Lunice has taken a more low-key route. Unfortunately, his debut solo album is largely underwhelming, especially for what’s described as a “theatrical showcase”. It’s industrial, but somehow not abrasive enough; ominous, but in an almost cheesy rather than menacing way. There are striking moments – Drop Down bubbles with rapper Le1f’s playful flow and Sophie’s additional production, while Distrust seethes spaciously. The elements are there but never really draw you in. Overall, CCCLX doesn’t quite add up.

'The hippie dream is still alive': how Ibiza went from techno to boho
Railing against VIP areas and generic EDM are a crop of promoters tapping into the original spirit of Ibiza: bohemianism, Balearic beat and cosmic alignment
It’s Friday afternoon in Ibiza, the sun is beating down and I’ve arrived at an old army barracks in the centre of the Spanish clubbing mecca for the inaugural Aniwa Gathering. It resembles a rave; the police, naturally, have already tried to close it down. But despite the troupes of hippies, decorative canopies and the totem pole demarcating the entrance, it is most definitely not a rave.
While the tech house superclubs prepare for another night of narcotics and vest-clad fist pumping, this is an event singing to a different tune. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when a former Brazilian model and a ex-director of a tech startup discover ayahuasca, then you’ve found your answer: they launch a foundation dedicated to the promotion of indigenous culture, start a festival and fly in 40 spiritual leaders from around the world to lead a series of talks, performances and ceremonies including the ritualistic sharing of cacao, the consumption of “plant medicine” and sweat lodges. Whatever your poison, Ibiza is always going to be an island of excess.

Mount Kimbie: Love What Survives review – electric wit and wisdom from London synth duo
(Warp Records)
In recent years, London duo Mount Kimbie have shrugged off their post-dubstep past and started to create songs that shepherd synth-heavy post-punk into the present day. On their third album, the band’s instrumentals radiate wit and warmth, like mid-80s New Order sloshing around in a sun-kissed sea – but it’s as a foil to some of Britain’s most idiosyncratic artists that Mount Kimbie really prove their mettle. Marilyn, their collaboration with Micachu, produces a masterly melange of outside-the-box melodies, James Blake’s hyper-emotional pipes meet creepily corrupted gospel on We Go Home Together, while the brilliant You Look Certain (I’m Not So Sure)’s chit-chatty vocals (courtesy of Andrea Balency, the band’s touring singer) recall post-punkers such as Vivien Goldman and the Raincoats. The record’s other highlight, Blue Train Lines, sees the duo reprise their hugely fruitful alliance with King Krule, artfully tempering the latter’s cracked howl with neat motorik drums and restrained synths that hover politely on the fringes of white noise.

Holger Czukay obituary
Founder member of Can who took a prominent role in producing and engineering the German rock band’s albums
by Adam Sweeting via Electronic music | The Guardian
When Holger Czukay, who has died aged 79, became one of the founding members of the Cologne-based band Can in 1968, his role was that of bass player. “The bass player’s like a king in chess,” he reflected later. “He doesn’t move much, but when he does he changes everything.”
However, Can described themselves as an “anarchist community”, and the group’s experimental spirit allowed Czukay plenty of room to explore various aspects of electronic music and recording. Right from their first album, Monster Movie (1969), they broke new ground with their fondness for improvised playing shaped by editing, layering and electronic effects, and Czukay took a prominent role in producing and engineering the band’s albums. Can never achieved huge commercial success, though they did achieve a Top 10 hit in Germany with Spoon, the theme from a TV thriller series, in 1972. Nonetheless their work – not least their mastery of the minimal, repetitive “Motorik” beat, which became a trademark, of Can, Neu! and other German bands – left a lasting impression on countless artists who came in their wake.

'It sent us down all kinds of wormholes': Bicep's secret dancefloor weapons
The Northern Irish duo have become one of the biggest acts in dance music – partly thanks to their DJ sets of ultra-obscure house and disco. They lift the lid of the darkest corners of their record collection
Andy Ferguson and Matt McBriar are dance music royalty, playing alongside house music’s biggest names and making waves with their new self-titled debut album. The former schoolfriends from Belfast are also scholars of dance culture: before their success as DJs they had built a reputation with their blog, Feel My Bicep. Since 2008, FMB has showcased the pair’s obsessive trawling of record shops and online sources for unknown club music oddities across the decades – this collectors’ mania has influenced a generation, and it has given Bicep’s music an extraordinary maturity. We asked them to pick their 10 favourite curios from the deepest corners of their record boxes.

Jessie Ware review – safe soul caught between candour and blandness
Islington Assembly Hall, London
Showcasing ballads from her third album Glasshouse, the singer keeps things cool – but with a sensationally emotional closing number
It’s hard to think of a young British artist who has had as easy a ride as Jessie Ware. A singer who began her career collaborating with future-facing figures such as Sampha and SBTRKT, Ware’s electronica-plated soul exists in a hinterland between pop and the underground, and is held to the standards of neither – not mocked for its shortage of Top 40-scaling hooks, nor chastised for its lack of inventiveness.
Instead it has been allowed to stretch its sultry wings in relative freedom, seemingly given special dispensation to pursue the ideals of subtlety and sophistication rather than resort to the attention-seeking abrasion that is the sad lot of out-and-out popstars like Taylor Swift and Katy Perry. Ware has also been spared the sniffy reviews suffered by other bastions of tasteful minimalism including London Grammar. Such are her reserves of cool that not even a working relationship with chart demon Ed Sheeran (she co-wrote the much-derided New Man on his last album; he co-wrote Say You Love Me on hers) could sully Ware’s reputation.

Opaque Poetics festival review – beautiful beats in Silicon Fen
Wysing Arts Centre, Cambridgeshire
The African electronic music collective NON Records take over the countryside with lineup of truly global sounds
Wysing Arts Centre is located deep in Cambridgeshire’s Silicon Fen, a landscape of science parks and tech incubators, a place where microprocessors and bluetooth sets issue from isolated country barns. But for 12 hours on Saturday, this corner of the fen was sending out high-tech emissions of a very different kind, as Wysing Arts Centre became a satellite of NON, an artist-run record label turned global collective of artists.
Last year’s Wysing music festival enforced one rule: no electricity. This year, however, everything is electric. From the throbbing digital scree that opened London-based producer Venus Ex Machina’s set to the woozy north African vocal samples used by Milan’s Petit Singe, no sound came unmediated, unamplified or unprocessed.

LCD Soundsystem: American Dream review – sombre but satisfying
(DFA/Columbia)
The spectre of mortality stalks LCD’s comeback album but mainman James Murphy seizes the day in style
LCD Soundsystem had rarely put a foot wrong before they announced a huge farewell in 2011 – and then reformed, with what many felt was indecent haste, in 2015. But LCD main man James Murphy had a good excuse for bringing back the band: his idol, David Bowie, thought he should. (If you took Bowie’s passing badly, just imagine how Murphy must have felt, with his three albums riddled with Bowie tributes, and a dream-come-true contributor credit on Blackstar.)
On this evidence, Bowie was not wrong. Tonite – released ahead of the album – is as succulent an iteration of LCD’s core squelch as fans could wish for.
