Mr Tejada all-time-classic the clickety, euphoric Mono on Mono gets a competent make-over by some of electronic world’s most unique sound-surgeons PLAID and POLE. first up is the most adventurous duo of Warp darlings PLAID who throw down a wiggling kinda broken electric-boogie beat paired with a tender main melody that has a sound between steeldrums and a childrens musical box before we’re lead into a more improvisitional part that reminds of a electronically alienated muted french horn. so much more advanced than most of the stuff we get bombarbed with on a weekly basis yet irresistibly charming, sweet yet darn funky - classic PLAID. rather known as breeder of abstract, irregular rhythms reduced to the max POLE catches us off-guard with a clever 4/4 dance interpretation. it still has his trademark crackling sounds and a affinity to classic dub technics with it’s heavy, stoically pounding bassline dropping in and out of the mix yet manages in a “finale furioso” with just cranking up the volume of one mad, spinet-like loop towards the end to set a primary rave signal driving a dancing crowd nuts. another radiant facet to John Tejada’s Palette.
