=============================================================================
An ominous, free-floating collage of found sounds, drum machines,
cheap keyboards and samples, Sukia's debut album Contacto Espacial
con el Tercer Sexo flirts with exotica and the avant garde without
committing to either.
And it's the better for it.
Sukia's instrumentals are alternatingly mesmerizing and disturbing
fueled by pseudo-bossa nova rhythms, jazzy chords and sheets of
noise.
It's not necessarily an alienating record, but anyone well versed
in the cut-paste productions of the Dust Brothers, who also helmed
this record, will be more inclined toward meeting the album
halfway, since the music isn't strictly lounge-revival, avant-pop
or electronic music.
It's a fascinating, darkly humorous melange of all three, and it's
endlessly fascinating.
