Under his own name, Taeggi also released the Mama Matrix Most Mysterious LP on Type two years ago.

The same intensive level of detail found in the Lumisokea productions permeates Miccaotli, with Taeggi’s distinctive rhythmic approaches and sound palette making this a release as engaging as it is adventurous. Clattering, mutant breakbeat flaring flirts with zippy synthesis on “Huehueteotl” before the more intimate shuffle and rattle of “Cipacti”, its kitchen sink percussion falling prey to crafty edits and FX swells. “Tlaloc” grows from sparse beginnings to meet with stark lead hooks that shine out amongst the razor sharp beat programming.

NORMAN RECORDS - "it’s bloody great"

BOOMKAT - "There’s a consistent style that shapes out Miccaotli, and it once again demonstrates the great technical skill Taeggi is capable of deploying in the studio."

SECRET DECODER - "The title track is, to my ears, the most evocative and effective on the album. Taeggi’s trademark nervous, shifting kick with subdivision duty left to disobedient snares, hats, and claps underlie the ancient-sounding homophonic synth passages and caustic, moody pads."

Solstitium Fulminate
by SUNN O)))

supported by 4 fans who also own “Gondwana — Miccaotli (Opal Tapes)”

"Recorded during SUNN O)))s European tour 2005, culminating at Roskilde Festival, Denmark" : laissez-moi vous dire qu'il n'y a pas que cette tournée qui arrive à son point culminant mais aussi Sunn O))) d'un point de vue général car Solstitium Fulminate, qui sert d'appendice à Black One, est un monument qui conjugue noirceur vampirique avec une certaine forme d'absolu. Le ton musical plonge très vite dans les graves pour nous faire entrer dans le royaume de la mort. Attila Csihar est un Charon. Jordan Vauvert
