4.0 out of 5 stars Acid Drops, November 29, 2003

For what might seem out of place as a Luke Vibert release, when in contrast to his work as Wagon Christ, Vibert's latest work "Yoseph" jaw breaks with Acid.
It's risky for any artist to break his/her own mold. In listening to "Yoseph" we travel back to core electronic roots, entrenched in early acid forms, with Luke Vibert delivering a heady blend of beats, strung together only as Vibert can, while still remaining accessible.
For fan's of Viberts current work, ie: Big Soup, Tally Ho, Musipal etc. Do not expect the same series of fruity loops and samples in what has become a feature of Vibert's music. While this work varies from anything of late, "Yoseph" is as rich and untamed as some of his earlier works. See: Wagon Christ - "Throbbing Pouch". Vibert & Simmonds "Weirs".
In what smachs as a love affair with Acid, the tracks are equally unquie but share a sense of continuity throughout each listen, with EP release, "I love Acid" being a stand out favorite. Do listen to the samples available on Amazon, though they are not enough to give this album the credit it deserves. Some people might not get it, or understand how important and really great "Yoseph" is. "Yoseph" is a bold piece of work, saturated in Acid, made accessible to pedestrian taste buds, make sure you don't miss out.

Just like Jackson already said in his previous review, you cant just underrate Luke Viberts (Wagon Christ) quality's. I got in contact with Luke Viberts music via the Rephlex site on which you can listen to samples of one of his new album (only LP in most stores for now). Although this new album (Kerrier District) is quite different then Yoseph (Kerrier District is mainly fresh sounding Disco) I just had to find out more about this man and his musical inheritance. I was quite supprised when I heard his other pieses / albums. They all are in someway special and seem to have some kind of "Cornish (not corny) twist" I also recognize in RDJ's tracks. Disco, D&B and Acid.......it blows my fuse....GREAT!. So now I am hooked to his man's music and besides Richard D James, to my opinion THE electronic music renewer, Luke Vibert comes second.

In defense of Luke Vibert's "YosepH", the CD was masterfully done and shows another side to his creativity! He has taken a risk by delivering a new sound that doesn't stray too far from his albums "Tally Ho" and "Musipal." One would think the acid sound would become nerve-racking after a while, but in "YosepH's" case, it's exhilarating and quite, how do you saaay, funktified. Amazingly impressive are the songs "Countdown", "Noktup", "Iloveacid" and "Acidisco"! GEEWHIZZ, Folks! Give the man a break for not trying to sound the same everytime he comes out with something new. A+ work, Vibert! Don't pay any attention to these 1,2 and 3 star reviews!
