Second full-length release from Berlin-based electronic artist Landesvatter. Landesvatter's pleasingly soft, clicky and minimalist tracks are so thickly woven that you have to listen closely, even as it draws you closer and closer to the dance floor. Born in lower Franconia, he came in touch with techno for the first time in 1991 and has lived in Berlin since 1995. As a producer, his electronic music spans minimal techno, abstract jazzy clicks and cuts, to hip hop-influenced tracks. Lax is a thrilling release: the tracks meander surprisingly, never taken for granted and individually speaking for themselves. The samples are like tiny quotes which flow with the silver of jazz, pop guitar riffs and various other flotsam of music history. The beats have become more melancholy and the music more heavy duty.
