No One Knows You...Til It's Over

With Riceboy Sleeps, Jonsi Birgisson had made his way off of the beaten path of the Sigur Ros mentality, blending more rich and complex ambiance together for an audio-map of a landscape previously unexplored. However, turning the corner with a brand new album entitled "Go", Jonsi brings more of his band's roots and strengths into producing a cascade of brilliant melody.

His new album, slated to release on April 6th, is a mastery of Jonsi's rhythmic, synthetic, and vocal qualities. From start to finish, the tracks guide you on an ephemeral journey through melodic valleys, over gorgeous acoustic summits, and deep into the musical framework of the heart of the musician. Sublime string synths flow seemlessly with the powerful and emotion-gripping vocal work.

Tracks that stand out: Grow Till Tall, Sinking Friendships, Around Us. Furthermore, Jonsi does vocal work on this album in English, rather than Icelandic or his invented language, Hopelandish. Keep an eye out for this gem, as it will definitely make a spot on my shelf for itself, as it should yours.

A Year-End Review

So 2009 was a huge year for new and ridiculously amazing electronic music. Whether the artist released their first album (in the case of CFCF or La Roux) or veterans pushing new material (The Crystal Method or The Prodigy). Overall I was extremely impressed with the plethora of talent showcased this past year, but a few stood out more than others.

I won't go through reviewing every single track on my "best-of" list because you can check out this past week's show in the CJAM archive, but I will point out my number one choice. The collaboration effort between Modeselektor, Apparat, and producer Gernot Bronsert, entitled Moderat, was a stellar album. It combined the style of each individual into a mind-numbing supersound. If you are interested in any of these three programmers check out their self-titled album.

Top Tracks of 2009:
01. Moderat - Rusty Nails
02. Zoot Woman - Saturation
03. Deadmau5 - Ghosts 'n Stuff (ft. Rob Swire)
04. Passion Pit - Sleepyhead
05. Misstress Barbara - I'm Running (ft. Sam Roberts)
06. La Roux - Bulletproof
07. CFCF - You Hear Colours
08. Royksopp - This Must Be It
09. Animal Collective - My Girls
10. Marsheaux - So Far
