alex font has many strings to his bow, not least running the excellent acme label, and here he is on one of his other ventures, third stream. with improvisation placed at the forefront of the creative process, font turns out functional club tracks with curious kinks and moments of intrigue worked into the structure. onda tropical is definitely dj friendly with its insistent percussive framework, but there are interesting diversions, fills and edits peppered throughout. musica moderna (cds tribute) meanwhile rolls on a more consistent groove, with a more organic set of drums pitched right at the heart of a long and winding dj set
alex the fairy returns to finders fee with rusty blade tears, the second record of three. the first track, a 4/4 kick blindly barging through an arcade is followed by a bathtub riding down the motorway in a dali-esque landscape. on the b-side, an angry cordless phone precedes some rusty ice cubes in arctic water. finder’s fee is a label for found sounds, found melodies and found rhythms.
