Now available on CD in addition to the 3LP version. "Once again Luke Vibert has delivered Rephlex a delectable slice of musical pleasure, which unusually, is singularly dedicated to the delights of disco music. "I don't think many people will believe it's me who's made it," say's Luke. "It doesn't sound anything like me. Just simple disco grooves. It sounds live, but it's all programmed to sound like old disco." It might come as a bit of a shock after the rave-tastic and well received junglist anthems of 2003 as Amen Andrews or the acid Tinged Yoseph album released on Warp records. Luke's inimitable take is stripped down like early house, organic sounding but with a lush glowing contemporary electronic feel, all groovy handclaps, strings, cowbells, horns and creamy basslines, highly addictive and very fresh. If you're wondering why the album is called Kerrier District, it's named after a local council in mid Cornwall where Luke grew up, not a place known for it's glittering debonair nightlife but it's a name that sounds well, pretty cool. A fellow Cornishman and contemporary of Rephlex label boss Richard James, Luke Vibert has released music under various pseudonyms including the off-kilter funk of Wagon Christ, the seminal drum 'n' bass of Plug and a collaboration with steel guitarist BJ Cole as well as remixing a host of his peers. Kid 606 even did a track called 'Luke Vibert Can Kiss My Indie Punk Whiteboy Ass', which pinched a sample from the Plug track 'Military Jazz'. (Always a gentleman, Luke played a gig with the Kid in Los Angeles in 2001). Luke has also compiled two albums of library music (Nuggets, Further Nuggets) for Lo Recordings. He regularly D.J.'s all over the world when he's not busy making excellent tracks like these."

Label:	REPHLEX (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	REPH 183CD

Electronic legend Luke Vibert comes through with his second release as Kerrier District. Vibert needs little introduction, with albums since 1993 on Rising High, MoWax, Planet Mu, Warp, Ninja and of course, Rephlex (co-producing the legendary Vibert Simmons odyssey with current label mate Jeremy Simmons, aka Voafose). He has recorded under many aliases since then, most notably Wagon Christ, Plug, Ace of Clubs, Butler Kiev and also more recently as Amen Andrews. Together with Aphex Twin and Squarepusher, he is noted for being a vital cornerstone in the triumvirate of braindance supremacy, and over the last couple of years he extensively toured the world getting himself a shithot reputation as a DJ. Vibert's original Kerrier District project was a disco house smash and the best-selling Rephlex release of 2004. If you haven't heard Kerrier District, it's a total contrast to the drum and bass sounds of Vibert's Amen Andrews work, being about as disco as house music can get with a tad bit of "funky" in there, too. You may recall his Kerrier remix of the 1978 Italo smash hit "Black Devil" -- well, these remixes, too, could very well be chart-bound. Kerrier District 2 taps this side of Vibert's extraordinary talent even further, but is basically just great music that rocks a party or puts a smile on your face, and you'd miss it if it wasn't in your collection. The new chart-friendly remixes are the kind of music that will appeal to all dance music fans for years to come. Remix artists include a version by Ceephax Acid Krew, the mega-talented acid master.
