Herbert

I can't stop listening to HERBERT'S newest album, Scale.

Matthew Herbert used over 700 items (musical and otherwise) to create his genius new record, Scale, including "coffins, petrol pumps, meteorites, an RAF Tornado Bomber, and somebody being sick outside a banquet for a notorious London arms fair." All that might sound extraneous and downright gimmicky in the hands of a lesser producer, but Herbert masterfully employs all these elements to create warm, intelligent, and often politically-charged dance music. Oh, and getting the lovely Dani Siciliano to contribute vocals doesn't hurt.

Alright i'm being very carefull here, not to link to a myspace page ;)
On this track, Herbert busts out drums recorded in a hot-air balloon.
