You will find in this category each week, a review on an "UFO" track that is breaking the news. All styles are on the “menu” of this category: minimal, house, electro, techno or even trance in some cases.
The topic will be supplemented by other albums following the latest electronic music news.
Great surprise of the day thanks to Roy Music. The new EP "My home" from an artist that I’ve just discovered, Talisco, both sweet, pop and electronic. The EP is a kind of a musical road trip transporting us in the wide open spaces of the American West. Country fan during my spare time, there are some rhythms similar to this American style that give to the various tracks of the EP a real freshness. A little nice Frenchy producer that gives us some great folk-pop melodies tinged with electro beats. Some will argue they feel the shores of California with a freak folk ambiance other will say the psychedelic volutes of the guru Devendra Banhart, but Talisco will not get any attention to it, like his first checkered shirt and will reply that boundaries are only the ones we create!
This fresh music also comes from his Spanish origins. His songs tell the confiscated freedoms, influenced by a childhood full of western soundtracks that his father loved, but also some tracks of the Iberian folklore.
Talisco discovered music and the guitar at the age of the first revolts. The conservatory was too boring, he composed his songs in his room and created first a rock band, in the footsteps of Slash, Rod Stewart and Stevie Wonder. But life embarks him into other scene: ten years working in marketing. During this period, his home sweet home fast became a home studio, with weird machines plus hypnotic guitar, which are reminiscent of Nick Drake, the colossus with a soul of clay, or the theatrics of Jeff Buckley.
What about Talisco’s touch you can find in this EP? A mixture of trip hop (in the vein of Morcheeba and the productions of the English imprint Ninja Tune), pop and folk songs, between raw sounds and the one of Telecaster. And, here and there, piercing the palmas and the clicks.
Let’s say at the end, an excellent western soundtrack with a modern taste to the delight of our ears.
