alan abrahams, the man behind portable, emerged out of the ruins of a post apartheid south africa. growing up in an impoverished cape town township, tagged >beverly hills< by the locals, abrahams was always immersed in his sisters ritual of getting ready for a night out to a soundtrack of 80s soul, hi life and hip hop. inspired by the first batch of chicago house records, the foundations were laid for his future in music. experimenting with ways of combining traditional african rhythms with the 4/4 sound of house,abrahams completed various projects in south africa. most of which gave a commentary to the political turmoil of the country at the time. abrahams inevitably became frustrated by the geographic isolation of the country and relocated to london in 1997. in the uk abrahams went on to complete various releases for internationally recognised labels such as context and background records before starting up his own label, süd electronic in 2002

>a 1000 keys< is a fatal hommage to minimalism and a consequent denial of virtuosity and the idea of creative genius. paraphrasing the romantic idea of human perfection, brinkmann found a way to create sonic algorithms of tenderness and brutality, establishing dramatic expressiveness in his constructivist analytics. the result is of radical beauty.

the debut album from charlie alex march is a wonderfully melodic and satisfying affair, gloriously english in a non sniffy manner, like tea and crumpets or a stroll on an autumn day. like a soft collision between aphex twin at his most melodic, nick drake at his string soaked finest or some hybrid of steve reich and syd barrett scoring a tim burton movie, the music of charlie march has a lingering, delicate beauty that will be around for a long time.
