Tonne
Lilium
 
Paul Farrington's work under the guise Tonne has tended towards an exploration of the fusion of the sonic and the visual. His first solo  album'SoundToy' on BiP-HOp probed the possibilities of screen-based custom-built sound toys, featuring collaborations with Scanner, Hakan Lidbo and si-cut.db. Released to widespread acclaim in 2002 it quickly led to  numerous higher profile projects, not least recent work on a Depeche Mode sound  toy and the development of Moby Hotel (www.mobyhotel.com) for Mute.

'Lilium' sees the emphasis shift from software processes to pure, jet-propelled sound. Across its ten abstractly titled tracks Farrington balances deep, seductive grooves with a delicate digital effluvium, the by-product of his resolutely on-screen environment.

The effect of the ten tracks is cumulative, with each building on the  last - layer upon careful layer in a manner that mimics the carefully  constructed and interlocking fixtures of house music. By the fourth track  'Lankongense' the groove has settled, albeit punctuated by a series of frequent and unpredictable slips and cuts - features which critically differentiate 'Lilium' from the main stay of 'clicks and cuts' predictability.

This is echo-soaked digital house, stripped down before being  painstakingly rebuilt - itself a magical and mesmerising process. 'Bulbiferum' spills  from the speakers mutating like some rapidly evolving organism, rich and exuberant, but slightly unstable - nonetheless a joy to witness. Closing with the hollowed snaps crackles and pops of 'Luteum' marks a fitting  end -
a memorable late night ending, that rightly fades only to begin again...



Reviews:

the label klitekture is known for carrying out a right investigation on its vision of minimalism, as we have been able to check in their previous vinyl references, more orientated to the atmospheric dance. this one is the debut of the label in CD format and they do it with a first-class artist: tonne.
