LUOMO DOES IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
By
This review is from: The Present Lover (Audio CD)
Luomo's sophomore release the "Present Lover" is a very impressive follow-up to his cult classic "Vocalcity"! The picture of the Bridgette Fonda-looking model on the cover notwithstanding, this set of 10 truly long-playing songs is just what the doctor ordered, especially to someone like me who likes house music, but not the monotonous drone of most of the faceless bands that are doin' it these days. Indeed, songs like the title track, "What Good?", "Could Be Like This", "Shelter" and "Body Speaking" are full of texture, character, originality and strong dance floor appeal. If you don't dig this one, you're either deaf, or the other word that goes along with that word!

This review is from: The Present Lover (Audio CD)
As a fan of Vladislav Delay, I was interested to check out his work as Luomo. For a few minutes, I almost didn't believe it was the same composer - it's so vastly different than what I'm used to hearing from VD. After a few tracks, it became more and more apparent: under the glossy production and lovely vocals, I could hear his unique compositional elements poking through. It's like Naked Music meets weird experimental electronic music. It's thoroughly catchy, but with substance.
Overall, this is a very lush album - great for just relaxing. If you're a fan of that Naked Music/Hed Kandi style of female vocals with a laid back vibe, you need this album. It gives the same effect, but there's a lot more going on musically than with some of those one-off deep house artists. Check it out.

A True Gem!,
By Marie E. Superfille "superfille" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Present Lover (Audio CD)
I just rediscovered my love for this record, and can't tout it enough. Luomo delivers an album full of soul and sophisticate - his recipe combines the delicious flavors of deep and micro house to create one delightful dish. The result: sheer enjoyment for the ears and the libido. Keep an an eye out for the rerelease of Vocalcity as well - another fabulous record.
