Into his 25th year as a DJ, Dutch producer Aardvarck comes with his second full-length album for Eat Concrete Records -- much in the vein of his Bloom series, but in an album context with songs and lush inter-noodley bits. With Choice, Aardvarck has created one of his finest selections to date. Offering 22 tracks that go in all different directions, Aardvarck has become known for bass-heavy dub, lush soundscapes, broken beats and soul vocals. The album is introduced by Gaslamp Killer, kicks off with the beautiful "Lucky Shot," featuring female vocals by Alexandra, and continues with some cinematic and hypnotizing ambient-esque pieces before the bass kicks in with "Breaking Bad." From then onward, you are treated with songs reminiscent of some of the recent Bloom releases, displaying a taste for heavy bass, beats and dub samples. Yet Choice has more to offer than DJ-food alone; the album flows like a mix and keeps a light and fresh vibe along the way with lots of sketches and interludes. Aardvarck also offers some definite classics with "Heal" and "Find The Cow..Almost," featuring guest vocals on both tracks. Timeless.
