Isam

brazilian-born amon tobin, one of the major producers on the ninja tune label, drops his eight studio album to date, a deep and mysterious journey through the depths of sonic sci-fi psychedelica. 'isam' combines his love for gritty field recordings, art, sci-fi and electronica into a stunning piece of intelligent sound design. 'isam' is the result of recording and synthesizing countless snippets of sounds, after which they were built into actual instruments that were subsequently used to create its content. the result is an album that sounds unmistakably organic, intelligent and in a way- beyond comprehension. some would refer to this as idm, but 'isam' stretches far beyond this definition only.
