My Record of 2008 was from TV On The Radio so there is no surprise that I can make this amazing new album from Telepathe my Record of the Week. The connection becomes very evident on tracks like ‘In Your Line’. It also has to be noted that Telepathe’s first album is actually produced by Dave Sitek, TVOTR’s mastermind. Second week in a row with an album that is impossible to classify. It is as if the music creativity is finally moving forward after years of cut / copy / paste. Piccadilly records use the words ‘Prog-Stepping’, ‘indie-meets-Afro-house groove with West End style NYC disco’ and ‘avant / electro-pop sound that combines spliced electronic beats, lush sound textures and sweet female vocals’. Erm… Listen to them in order to make your own opinion and I am sure someone will soon come up with a term to define this futuristic and fantastic new music. New York strikes again!
