Let's See What Carmen Can Do [EP]

Amazon.com
A record packed with everything that's right about electronic music--invention, humor, and surprise. The mysterious Mr. Porcini has designed a hipster electronic jazz full of breakbeats as quick as your next thought, heisted bebop bass, and sophisto horn stylings that merge and dissolve into an infinite inner space. "Carmen" is successful on two levels: One, it is simply and utterly cool. Two, it presents electronics as the music of capability. Porcini uses technology to bound from concept to concept, era to era, style to style with a deftness never before imagined. --S. Duda

Well done Pimpernel!!.......2006-05-17

Wow! Thought I'd check this out, as I had heard something/somewhere of theirs. This is jazzy, lightning fast stuff--shifting gears, speeds, tempos, modulations etc. My fave is Pete Pete Pete, a pythonesque jumble of samples w/ variable speeds and distorted voices. If it doesn't put a smile on your face, maybe you can't smile. A bargain!! This may be their best.
