Brand new release from Zoo Brazil

A point of view indeed. One musician's of course, but that of an individual who's proved - over many a year - to be as scene-enduring as he's been artistically inspirational. Whilst Zoo Brazil may not make longplayers all that often, when he delivers, they typically become classics in their own right or simply works of electronic art.

The auteurish nature of John Andersson has given those releases the cachet, not simply of influence and cool, but evermore of rarity. Its title a casual allusion to John's sonic bearing, 'Point Of View' is his first album statement since 2012's 'Any Moment Now'. Specifically that bearing encompasses the strata of classic, deep and tech house, with its tracks existing without exception in the hinterlands between.

A 10-track collection, 'Point Of View' lays bare the inner workings of John's musical mind. While it draws themes and strand-influences from music spanning 40 years or more, don't expect that to be as gauche as to be overt. Featuring the M/F vocal pairing of Wolf and Moon, the album opens with 'From A Distance'. The German duo's dream-folk song underpinned by John's nagging, resolute groove, casual string strum and deep set bass throb. Following you'll find former single 'Never Had'. Advanced by Niara's soulfully housey tones and spiritual lyrics, John's extends its clubfloor range with bassy sub-riffs and a chiming top line. Continuing its vocal lean, gothic synth strains backset by timbale percussion gather the ether for 'Nine Mind', while Mama's considered, mediative lyrics & vocals condition its latter stages.
