Synopsis

Album Description
Welcome to the wonderful world of Alex Smoke, the young producer from Glasgow whose potent album, Incommunicado is about to be released on Soma Records. This is Alex Smoke?s eagerly awaited debut and what a masterpiece it is. Already a name to watch in the underground electronic circuit he is on the cusp of getting the recognition he deserves. Alex Smoke is part of a new generation of producers who are blurring the boundaries between minimal, techno and electronica. This music still may live on the dancefloor but it occupies so much more. Drawing from a myriad of influences including dub, electro, grime, latin and experimental pop, Alex Smoke has concocted a deeply emotive artist album that is mysterious, melancholic and inspiring. With ?Incommunicado? Alex Smoke has defined his own unique sound, which respectfully nods to DSP pioneers like Matthew Dear, Villalobos, Luciano and Lawrence, who he regards as very influential. This is an accomplished debut from a talent who is going to shine in 2005.
 

CD Reviews

Brilliant work
C. Spinelli | Australia | 05/19/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"A brilliant, consistent album that concentrates on slick, fat, minimal beats. Has a deep, almost dark, feel to it Obviously not designed for the dancefloors of Ibiza or the popular crowd.. more for personal listening..

Well produced all round with some variety, including vocals. If you like detroit/deep house or electronica, you won't be dissapointed here!"
Underrated sickness
