LEAFCUTTER, JOHN - THE HOUSEBOUND SPIRIT (CD - USED m-/m-)

"Third album from London-based acousmatic composer and East London "face about town" John Burton. Very emotional electro-acoustic/computer music in the vein of Parmegiani and Jim O'Rourke mixed with heartfelt folk inspired by Palace Brothers among others. This is very melodic, sensitive and dynamic, not a glitch-fest. John has performed at many electronic music festivals worldwide since his debut "Concourse" on Planet Mu in 2000. He has also remixed for and released music on Klangkrieg, Tigerbeat6, XL Recordings, Melange, Simbolrec and Schematic. This album was previewed by a track on the Wire 20th Anniversary issue cover mount cd, from which he has recieved many commissions of work. Follow up to the classic Microcontact cd." (label info)
