DJ Koze – Music Can Hear Us (Deluxe Edition Magenta Coloured 2 x Vinyl w/ Bonus 7" Vinyl)
Given that he's now genuinely big in the game - producing a high-profile album for Roisin Murphy will do that - the arrival of a brand-new full-length from DJ Koze is significant news. It's the Hamburg-based producer's first solo album in seven years and sees him offer up 15 diverse, imaginative and occasionally unusual tracks whose sound varies from Indian-influenced downtempo exotica ('The Universe In a Nutshell'), off-kilter outsider electronia ('The Talented Mr Tripley') and tactile, Osunlade-influenced deep house (recent single 'Buschtaxi'), to jangly psych-Balearic excursions ('Arunda') and heady ambient soundscapes ('A Donde Vas?' with Soap&Skin). As you'd expect from an artist of his standing, it's also heavy on collaborations and guest spots, with Damon Albarn, Sophia Kennedy (on the semi-pastoral pop of 'Der Fall'), Ada, Notwist and Marley Waters amongst those lending a hand. – Juno
