Wagon Christ - Musipal "Pure Electronic Modern Electronics"

Posted about 5 years ago
Wagon Christ is experimental music at it's finest, I haven't been disappointed with a Ninja Tune release that I've listened to yet. I can only hope that all the albums under Luke Vibert's numerous aliases are this good. It is evident that Vibert has a love for hip-hop in this album, but weird synths and samples make it an eccentric choice if you're looking for something a little different. Songs like Tomach and Receiver are probably the most listener-friendly on the album, check out the video below for Receiver which is equally as excellent as the song itself. As Wagon Christ is described on Vibert's MySpace page, he sounds like, "If DJ Shadow lived in Hackney, smoked a bit more bush and employed a cheeky sense of humour" (myspace.com/lukevibertdj). This is the 4th release as Wagon Christ, but the first one introduced to me and an album that really got me curious about the peculiar music I could find. Between his name and album titles like "Sorry I Make You Lush" and "Throbbing Pouch" he is probably one funny dude. He also has numerous albums under his own name, Plug, and Kerrier District - which should all probably be on my list of music to get. Enjoy! Check this out if you like: Fila Brazillia, Aphex Twin, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Amon Tobin
