I guess we just don't see eye to eye when it comes to music tastes, my friend: "Happy Birthday" by Modeselektor and "Orchestra of Bubbles" by Ellen Allien & Apparat are two amazing albums that I might prefer over the entire discography of ours. Despite that, they have produced two excellent albums, but I wouldn't go beyond 4 stars.
PS: I thought you mentioned Myriam Leone for the two tracks titled "Porc" :D

Have they added anything to the history of music? And what would people like Thievery Corporation have accomplished if it weren't for good old Michael Cretu pointing the way? It's not a masterpiece, but it's an important album from a historical standpoint, and the subsequent "Cross of Changes," which you speak of in a dismissive manner, is even better.

"Disco" gave me feelings similar to "Future Nostalgia": it’s a well-produced and sung album, where, unlike the former, you can see the experience of a "weighty" pop star (in a metaphorical sense, of course). However, it doesn’t seem like there are any standout tracks that particularly captivate; perhaps they should have cut something or varied the production a bit. It’s a good work, but inferior both to other chapters of her discography ("Fever," "Body Language") and to the albums of Gaga and Jessie Jare, which for me remain the best recent pop records.

I know him by name, and I will probably give him a listen. The tattoos hint at significant musical references: will he be up to the task?

A truly intriguing story. Now I would move on to the complete works of Bruno Vespa.

A lot of water has passed under the bridges, my old friend. Just for the record, I tried to listen to the aforementioned Panzoni again and I downloaded them after a few attempts. From today, only Lady Gaga and Lana Del Rey.
PS: the album really rocks. By the third listen, you might become gay, though. Be careful.

Let's say that a few more words wouldn't have hurt, but it's not written poorly. As I've mentioned elsewhere, it's a gap I would like to fill, and apparently the album is noteworthy. In any case, at least a review of a new release: that's good.
Autechre Oversteps
Voto:
The review, while thorough, shares the same flaw as the work: it's too long; I would have cut something. As for the return to melody, the Autechre pop and so on, let's hold back: after all, we're still talking about Autechre. There is certainly a revival of ambient and melody, but these are crooked, alien, dissonant melodies; the tracks lack a defined structure or perhaps they don't have one at all. "Love Songs from Outerspace," maybe they could have called this album that. More than simple, it's a different way of being difficult, abandoning rhythmic complexity and focusing on generative sequences, dissonances, fragmentation of the tracks, etc. Coming to the judgment: our artists show a glimpse of a desire for renewal, but the album is still too long and exhausting. I believe that even when experimenting, the pleasure of listening must not be sacrificed, which, in this case, is sorely lacking. A "Steps" without "over" would have been better.

I liked it, even though the album isn't exactly a new offering. Keep it up.
