Atlas saltA (Map Lies, Border Lies...)

On his third release for Dekorder Didac Lagarriga is opening his sound towards a more open, less formal and repetitive style, mixing field recordings, instruments from Africa and South East Asia and surreal voices into a floating freeform sound. Including the most beautiful love song I have ever heard.

"... In its spacious, leisurely and unassuming way, Like a Packed Cupboard But Quite... is exemplary. It's the work of Barcelona based Brazilian Didac P. Lagarriga, a man capable of atomising and blending a global array of influences without succumbing to the cloying blandishments of "World Music" or "fusion". Instead, Like a Packed Cupboard But Quite... is sleekly modern, enfolding dancing fragments of multiethnic sound in an atmosphere of digital clarity and deceptive calm ... However, there's no sense of textural overload, just a series of steadily hypnotic, subtle and deeply satisfying revolutions."
