Thool
Thool make world-dance music which encapsulates re-heated prog rock, to jungle, italo disco, Balearic, percussive new-wave and playful pop ambience.
“Where running water washes gongs and koto samples spin backwards. Where machines hit snares and cowbells. Drums “splashing”, “sploshing” and skanking. Where polished 1980s Pop drama charges Acid B-lines and House rhythms. As if Razormaid had edited together the breaks from floor-filling favourites by Animotion, Belouis Some and Alphaville. Reaching back to an old London sound. One inspired by nights at Amnesia, but redefined by Andrew Weatherall`s cockney cover-ups. Electronics on Ecstasy, but Balearic by accident. William Orbit`s Torch Song. Fluke at Shoom. Then the violins come in.”
