There are no big surprises on this record, no sudden forays into electronica or hip hop, no eclectic trawls through different styles and genres. |
Consequently, the album sews punk, northern soul, hip hop, garage and electronica together and then pulls the whole lot inside out. |
A danceable cumbia or salsa track is mixed with other sounds, everything from electronica to rap. |
The music is a sophisticated meshing of guitars, busily efficient rhythms and electronica. |
In previous instances when hi-tech visuals have been so closely married to music, it's usually been of the electronica type. |
The link between electronica and shoegazing is made more explicit every day. |
