about

The Danish Martian Lars Graugaard uses the laptop exclusively to operate within techno, and under the moniker Lars From Mars he gives us this time two adventurous techno tracks, separated and book-ended by three short excursions into ambient techno.

As usually is the case with Lars, on this album he once more explores that same concept of sound bodies that he uses elsewhere, the obvious difference being the tenacious techno rhythms that underlie them. The rich and highly detailed music that Graugaard sets on top of his bass lines are mediated, self-programmed processes that may sound and behave somewhat like traditional instruments – after all, they use what we know about our perception of gestures in rhythm, melody and tonality – but the approach allows for fresh and surprising twists and twirls on the electronic timbres and the musical proceedings: improvisations, solos, rebounds, bridges, mirror games, evaginations and break-ups are all abundantly happening.

The result is a constantly changing mutant techno that is danceable and humorous: psychedelic, fun and extravagant – and surprisingly efficient.
