Love Of Plastic
Eeeeeesh, Shinichi Atobe’s sixth album for DDS, another deployment of effortless and entirely inimitable club classics that connect the dots between effervescent dub house, deep techno and swirling beatdown, selected and compiled from a package of new productions sent from Japan with nothing but cryptic track titles for guidance.
Love of Plastic – we talking aesthetic here pal? bit like comme de garçons’ genius, subversive amplification of synthetics in perfume? Something like Mark Fell’s assertion that “House music is best when it does not aim to copy ‘real’ music”? Impossible to tell – and honestly part of the thrill is in not really fully grasping Atobe’s praxis. What we can say is that with every album there’s a shift – sometimes barely perceptible – in spirit and focus. On this one everything’s gone a bit heavier – bit deeper – once again refracted through Rashad Becker’s mastering prism. You really could be listening to music recorded decades, years or a few weeks ago – we’ll probably never know. But with the simplicity comes a kind of impenetrable code too. That fleeting diva vocal sample 4 minutes into ‘Love of plastic 6’ – what’s it doing there? why does it work so well?
Perhaps the reason Shinichi’s music resonates with so many is the impregnable sense of optimism buried in his DNA – there’s a breeze of warm air that takes over whenever his music is played, a promise of better days, blue skies, tingling skin, sultry evenings – all that hammy stuff. But also, entirely undeniable. Play this one and tell us you don’t feel it?
Spring’s almost in the air.
