  Possible Planet (by Mark Morton)
I recall a recent interview with a former electronic music improviser who is now enamored of total control, to the effect that previous recordings of his were not worthy of discussion because the sounds were just happened upon and could not be reliably reproduced.
"First Murmur" opens the recording and listeners are immediately rewarded as it quickly passes the first sonic stirrings of a primordial bog and transforms itself into a wondeous tapestry of a natural landscape teeming with throbbing life and hinting at potential life.
One limitation of modular synthesizers, monophony, is transcended with ease through tuning, modulation and multitracking, so that a complex yet relaxed composition is presented.

 Fade Records   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
In 1997, they put together an EP released on the Belgian Label Modular Recordings which included four tracks ranging from hard techno and Chicago house to deep tech-house.
Drawing on eclectic influences that included the dirty tech-house of Basic Channel, the atmospherics of LTJ Bukem, and the progressive mentality of Sasha and Digweed, he put together a 4-track demo which caught the attention of one of America's finest DJs, Chris Fortier of Fade Records/Balance Promote.
In 2000, Chris signed all four tracks to Fade Records, one of which was licensed to Kinetic records for inclusion on Dave Ralph's Mix CD "Naturalized." This success was soon followed by the signing of two more tracks to Sandy Fox's Inversus label.

But then again, he might just have inherited such vocal attributes from the Led Zeppelin/Robert Plant projects in his classic rock record collection.
Whatever the case, however, this band is clearly the beneficiary of wisely chosen musical influences.
This brief recorded sampling reveals an act with an undeniable taste for blood, which makes you wish there were just a few more bands equally hungry like the Wolfmother.

So, as you can tell, Modular Recordings and MFR have had a nice relationship for quite some time now, and this is a good example of that: this track is somewhat exclusive, as it is only out in Australia at the moment.
However, rumor has it that Modular has (very) recently opened a US branch, so you can probably expect all of their records to come out here at sweet sweet domestic prices...
modular records is now part of Island Records in the U.S. so hopefully they pore some money into this quality shit.

Printz is Colonna’s first two Australian EP’s combined into one, both Red Printz and White Printz are the demarcation of something better than the ACDC 'lite' that started with a metallic chair and will eventually end with either a parasitic plant or an aptly named flying craft that uses propulsion to gain lift.
Modular is on the up and up, a righteous indie outfit from down under that may be a suggestion to the American public that Australian music doesn’t have to be horribly derivative and obvious – that there is some originality in music in the land of the ‘OG’ of weird freakish animals with pouches.
Like label mate Cut Copy, Bumblebeez siphons elements of everything from hip hop to punk rock to some other cleverly worded label I’m too lazy to name.

A layered, rich pop record, A Song is a City shares with its predecessor a sombre closing track about driving (Car Crash).

Part of this stems from the unorthodox approach to the recording.
Dan began recording and programming initial demos in Melbourne, whispering vocal takes in his bedroom at three in the morning (whilst his flatmates slept).
Having blown up the sampler at a live show, Dan decided to make a second series of recordings, with a group of mates bashing out the same tracks live as a sloppy indie four piece.
