Maybe it’s just because I hadn’t listened to any songs from that album in a while, but when I did the other day I felt like it was something I had only heard in passing on tv but still recognized.

  Luomo: The Present Lover - PopMatters Music Review
Finnish artist Vladislav Delay, AKA Luomo (funny how his alias sounds more Finnish than his real name, but I digress), emerged a few years ago as one of the foremost names in microhouse, his Vocalcity album delivering some stirring, spacious, minimally-arranged dance music, the hook-filled vocals weaving in and out of his bare-bones arrangements.
The fact is, this album is more of a pop record than anyone else, Luomo pulling it off with such supreme skill, that if he were to do so, he could elevate the most mundane pop diva wannabe to goddess status in the blink of an eye.
The new version, however, is a much tighter piece of work, as Luomo transforms it into a flat-out gem of a dance anthem that borders on straight-up house music.

I hate the term "microhouse" as much as the next guy, but maybe the next guy hasn't heard Luomo.
For me, this song's everything I still need to say to the love of my life--the guy who needed to "be on his own" after three years.
luomo is a great deep house project - i like it...

 Luomo: The Present Lover: Pitchfork Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Finland's Luomo is that artist who would be the focus of an identity crisis.
Luomo, in typically modest fashion, speaks of the "panic" he went through recording the vocals on Vocalcity, having never featured any on previous releases.
If I didn't know better, I'd say Luomo was doing a pretty good job of presenting the over-reported sound of Scandinavia, what with its glacial momentum and tendency to replace all the rough edges with icy consonance.

 Seattle Weekly: Music: Delayed Climaxes by Tim Finney
On his 2000 debut, Vocalcity, Luomo’s alternate-universe model of house reconstituted the style’s simple pulse-groove as a dense, sticky profusion of intermeshing percussion snaps and pops, syrupy dub echoes, and an array of soft-focus sonics.
Each snare rattle or hi-hat hiss is lovingly sculpted by a multitude of barely perceptible tics and smudges, so that the grooves shimmer and flare, their seeming equilibrium the careful result of an intensely compressed molecular activity that constantly threatens to rupture the surface of the music.
Luomo’s insistence on emotional excess and his constant flirtation with rapture demand a fully committed listener.

His personality was still very much in evidence; the Luomo records are still filled with unpredictable bursts of sound, sudden reversals and structures collapsing and re-forming.
This year saw the arrival of the second Luomo album, The Present Lover, and the more pop elements of the earlier Vocalcity are even further to the fore.
Igloo: On the Luomo album The Present Lover you were working with whole vocal parts, much more than just the repeating phrases that are on most of Vocalcity.

 Luomo - The Present Lover - Stylus Magazine
On 2000’s Vocalcity, a rapturous collection of three EPs crafted under his Luomo guise, Delay delivered a pared-down masterpiece of soulful subtlety that teased the high-gloss garb of vocal house into a sexy skitter of glitchcraft and hazy echo.
Though Delay still professes his outsider status, the scrubbed sheen that marks The Present Lover — Luomo’s proper follow-up after a torturous two-and-a-half years — is liable to rattle listeners expecting a return to the ethereal dancefloors of Vocalcity.
The retooled Luomo shirks its predecessor’s wide-open spaces and slow-pooling hooks for something entirely more immediate, less a murky gathering place for house’s ghost than a glossed surface coolly seared by low-hanging fluorescent lights.

 Luomo's stylish spins hit Emo's Wednesday - The Daily Texan - Entertainment
Luomo, aka Vladislav Delay, is described as "driven by an ever-present inner restlessness." That's a bit of an understatement, considering Luomo's schedule for his U.S. tour includes stretches like Emo's on March 10, Toronto (still in Canada) on the 11th and Houston's Go on the 12th.
No doubt this tireless DJ, producer and man of many pseudonyms is dedicated, but the 26-year-old Finn is much more impressive in his ability to infuse this same kind of intense immediacy into some of the chillest ambient vocal house ever.
The second release under the Luomo moniker, "The Present Lover," is so bizarrely excellent that it manages to maintain the best aspect of disco liquid vocals while keeping the same minimalist feel of Scandinavian electronica.

The new CD is the follow up to Vocalcity (Force Tracks), his first album as Luomo that was released two and a half years ago.
On the new CD Delay, under the guise of Luomo, explores new dimensions in upfront vocal house.
Johanna Niemela and Watkinson, vocalists on the first Luomo album, reprise their roles behind the mic, while the unmistakable voices of Antye Greie-Fuchs (Laub) and Danish song writing genius Raz O'Hara deliver an as yet unforeseen edge to the production.

 CD Music Reviews - Car Audio Magazine
Edging close to the line that separates cheesy Euro pop and quality, inspiring dance music, the new album from Finnish born and raised Luomo has just enough decent production and a few unique vocal tracks in it to remain interesting.
There is also a nice minimal element to the first half of the album, which unfortunately disappears on the later, less inspiring tracks.
Luomo is worth a listen if you're looking for decent, mellow, electronic dance music that has a more traditional song structure and loads of vocals.

The Finish deejay and producer genius Vladislav Delay, aka Luomo, took the stage during the club’s Mamatronik opening party, his set followed by the reggae — hip hop duo The Bug featuring Ras B from the United Kingdom.
A series of several 12” EPs were being critically acclaimed at the beginning of the new millennium before it was revealed that Delay was their author.
Many deejays later began to follow Luomo’s ambient aesthetic, which was a departure from the House music most were used to hearing at the time.

 Album Review: Luomo - The Present Lover
After asking around it seems rumors have been afloat that the label has been in trouble and may have been hit hard after a lost distribution deal with EFA (I have know idea if any of this is true).
In contrast to the click and cut style experiments of Delays earlier work, Vocalcity was released under the Luomo alias and was for myself one of those rare albums that engaged me in numerous ways and soon became on of my most admired albums.
Combining a vocal house concoction with his own self created foundation as an experimental artist in sound processing, Delay created a unique collection of tracks drenched with soul and extra deep grooves in conjunction with diva style female vocals that seduced and complimented the finesse of the shifting drum sequences.

 Pridetime.com Music Review: Luomo
Driven by an innate pulse in deep house, Luomo’s The Present Lover is elegantly intense and obscenely infectious.
Conceived by the 26-year old Vladislav Delay – who performs at clubs and festivals around the world when not in the studio producing and remixing – he has amazing vision when it comes to making music.
Thriving beats, sonic sounds and ethereal vocals lent by Johanna, Niemela and Watkinson, who worked with V-Delay on Luomo’s first album, give The Present Lover that old-school house vibe with a new-school authenticity.

 XLR8R :: Luomo: Past Present Future   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The name Luomo, said pundits, would soon be on the lips of every club aficionado on the planet.
On Luomo’s 2000 Force Tracks album, Vocalcity, this evocative sound emerges from a recovered disco-funk memory and is allowed to fester and swell into a hot, throbbing techno-house passion for what seems like hours at a time.
And yeah, if I were just Luomo as an artist and had to pay my rent with it, I would be quite restless already.

 Album Review: Luomo / Raz Ohara - Running Away
The overall sound might be a cross section of his overall sound from Vocalcity, slightly more minimal then The Present Lover, but still with hints of this album too with Ohara in perfect form eating up the verse-chorus verse-chorus play the song moves.
Its odd cause you actually forget that this groove had its own obvious identity as Ohara pulls me in deep with his emotional delivery and Luomo's impressive skill at constructing pop song changes that seem far away from his original ten minute house scapes and experimental creations he does under the Delay name.
All said and done both tracks succeed in staying true to the obvious inspiration they rub off and within the first track we have one of the best written pop tracks of the year.

 Ink 19 :: Luomo
I first heard the title recording of Luomo's The Present Lover on the Digital Disco compilation in 2002, where in some ways it typified the music around it: synth-pop big on novelty effects.
Heard here at album length, his music is theatrical, but also strangely calm and intimate, especially for a record designed for clubs.
In Luomo's records, vocals and music are all one piece, there to be manipulated.

 LiP | Music Review | Luomo: Vocalcity
Of course it would be wrong to suggest that a crossover is absolutely necessary to such achievements, but this album works extremely well.
It should be no surprise to learn, therefore, that Luomo is in fact an alias of so-called IDM producer Vladislav Delay.
He’s managed to successfully channel his sound into a house format, and narrow-minded purists on either side of the fence will probably be disgusted.
