A danceable cumbia or salsa track is mixed with other sounds, everything from electronica to rap. |
This is cool, sophisticated, endlessly intriguing downtempo electronica with a beguiling, organic sound. |
The link between electronica and shoegazing is made more explicit every day. |
The music is a sophisticated meshing of guitars, busily efficient rhythms and electronica. |
There are no big surprises on this record, no sudden forays into electronica or hip hop, no eclectic trawls through different styles and genres. |
There's plenty of old school and funk, but there's even some Motown soul, swing, Japanese rap, reggae, J-pop, samba and early electronica. |
