"Planet Mu present the first album for 4 years from Dublin's electronic duo Decal (aka Alan O'Boyle and Dennis McNulty. Having previously worked for labels such as Warp, Leaf, Sabres Of Paradise, Lo Recordings, Satamile (NY), Moss Transit (Miami) and their own Ultramack and Trama labels, they have become known for their tough uncompromising electro and smooth Detroit influenced techno grooves. However this album is a departure from those styles, featuring no electro or techno at all... just guitars, vocals and electronics. It is almost ambient in its atmosphere and presents a maturity of construction, arrangement and melody which shows that here are styles which have been worked upon for years alongside their more well-known dancefloor sounds; the whole album sounds remarkably natural and unforced as if this is their regular shit. Reminds me of: Arovane's Tides, In The Nursery, Boards Of Canada, Steve Reich."
