Ambient / Experimental / SynthNew Vinyl LP (Limited Ed) Green / 31.50 EUR
Talk about unearthing forgotten gems, or indeed gems that were never really known in the first place. Back in 1983 Soren Fauli – then 19 years old, now an established Danish artist – decided to step away from the punk bands he’d been playing with and indulge his inner autobahn. Daily Fauli was the one-time project result, with this raw, mechanical but intimate record, which has as much in common with Kraftwerk as it does Powell, the only product. While there’s a rough and ready (and charming) aesthetic to the record, despite his age at the time, and the fact he had very little idea what to do with the Casios in hand, it’s incredibly accomplished stuff. The playful, shuffling warbler ‘Bus’ representing the lighter end of a spectrum that runs as fast as the edgy arpeggiations of ‘Speed’ and the pared back, proto-punk runaway train of ‘Hard Kogt’. A fantastic album and an interesting talking point.
