MP3: Bibio

I'll admit it right now. If one half of Boards of Canada suggests an album, I'll give it a go. It's not that I'm impressionable (okay, maybe a little) but where's the harm in a five minute scan. Generally speaking of course, five minutes, or approximately 30 seconds or so of each track, is enough to get a feel for a record, especially one like Bibio's Fi, soon to be released among a string of electronic records put out by Mush. While I can't in good conscious call the 17 tracks on this debut by Stephen Wilkinson "songs," I do enjoy them tremendously as ambient guitar pieces, eerily reminiscent (and more accomplished) of the stuff I tend to write in my downtime. Expect lots of reviews using words like organic, pastoral, bucolic and idyllic. Click here for more info on Bibio and links to purchase the record.
