Don’t worry; this isn’t another jazz-funk odyssey, but one third of UK dub techno act Swayzak doing his thing. While last year’s Swayzak album, Loops From The Bergerie, had a synth pop sensibility amid its deep grooves, Taylor goes off on a more experimental tangent here, with outstanding results.
Don’t worry; this isn’t another jazz-funk odyssey, but one third of UK dub techno act Swayzak doing his thing. While last year’s Swayzak album, Loops From The Bergerie, had a synth pop sensibility amid its deep grooves, Taylor goes off on a more experimental tangent here, with outstanding results. There’s the barely-there beats of ‘Never Really Wanted To Be’ and the spooky shuffle of ‘Leave Me Alone’, but Taylor impresses most with the stunning orchestral flourishes of ‘Eurobaby 11’ and on the shimmering synths of ‘Myoptix’, where a male vocal equates the importance of technology with breathing. On the evidence of Milk, it’s all that matters in Taylor’s world.
