BJORK COLLABORATOR! minimal, quirky synthpop - lots of Pansonic-inspired noise with sweet, smooth vocals over the top...
Olivier Alary first blipped on our radar when he released the understated and addictive `Sketch Proposals' on Rephlex some years back, since then he has gone on to produce tracks for Bjork (who had this album on heavy rotation while working on her 2001 album Vespertine and their collaborative relationship eventually led to Olivier's co-writing of the song Desired Constellation on Bjork's 2004 album Medulla, and still more remixes on the Triumph of a Heart single) and amass a number of quite significant collaborators - Sebadoh's Lou Barlow, Chan Marshall (Cat Power) and Mileece, to name a few.
