Lowfish – eliminator (CD)




I got this album at Renaissance Montréal store for 2.00 $. Lowfish is the solo electronic music project of Gregory De Rocher. This album came out in 2000 on Suction records. A label founded in early 1997 by Lowfish and Solvent (Jason Amm). This is my first listening experience. I bought this because it`s electronic music. I`m always curious about bands / artists I never heard before especially if it`s electronically oriented. The music on this album (10 songs = 46.28 minutes) is a nice mix of instrumental electronic, synth-pop and electro. The whole thing is like a sonic voyage through the land of lush arrangements, smooth, subtle keyboard works. Cinema for the ears if you will. A journey through the land of peace, chill out and relaxation. My standout tracks of the present time are:
1 – Glued smile (4.42 minutes) = chill out instrumental electro.
3 – Walking with scissors (4.29 minutes) = amazing minimal synth-pop.
7 – Finishing the stereotypes (7.55 minutes) = instrumental electro / synth-pop, recalls Kraftwerk circa `The Man Machine ` (1978) album. More information here: http://www.suctionrecords.com/
