Mokira is better known as Swedish 'Clicks 'n Cuts' superstar Andreas
Tilliander. After his hugely successful releases on Raster Noton and
Mille Plateaux, he is bringing a more subdued sound to the Type label.
This record shows an interesting shift in direction for the much
plagiarised clicks and cuts stalwart. Instead of using the glitch as a
basis for rhythmical experimentation, Andreas has brought his love of
post rock and ambient music into the equation, and removed his signiture
glitch-beats altogether. The method works beautifully, and Andreas has
managed to forge his most mature and involving album yet.
The best way to describe this record is to watch the sun rise over green
fields as the mid-morning dew droplets fall from daffodils, and cherry
blossom blows in the warm, tempered winds. This is an album which is
totally digital, but at the same time, one of the most organic sounding
ambient compositions for a long time. Heady electrically charged pulses
seeped in a mirage of warm carressing drones assault the senses in every
way, and each carefully formed track tumbles into the next. The seven
works on this record form one master-track, indexed at seven key moments
of change. Each piece can stand alone, but for the full effect they must
be played together, from beginning to end.
'Album' is the most simplistic of names, it reveals nothing about the
secrets within, but it could also mean so much. In fact the disc plays
as a photo album of sorts, a document of sights and sounds, a diary from
another dimension. So there we have it, a record which revels in the
simplicity of it's concept, but hidden within is a treasure so beautiful
that it takes the mind of a musical archaeologist to discover it.
