PAUL BRTSCHITSCH "ME, MYSELF AND LIVE" (ROOTKNOX) |
| |
If you read me you know I like minimalism. To know Paul "Bridge-Itch" (that's how it's pronounced!) is to know something I adore. It's a new love. Just heard it today. And am I most def impressed. The burden of entertainment/artistic value with minimalist electronica is typically laid upon textures. This is a trend in much of the indie house I really and truly dig. Texture can be everything. But "Me, Myself and Live," Brtschitsch's fifth artist album - which is as minimal as anything I've raved about recently - is a case study in few parts=much music. Stripped down to the wire but paradoxically lush with melody. It's a miracle on the part of this electronica guru to bring to the ears such supple, flavorful flesh of sound that is yet so utterly lean. Nary a thing wasted and every piece used to its fullest, most absolute potential. Big words, true, but this is a big sound for such a seemingly small box of parts. Superb. -- review by Kristofer Upjohn
