Product Description

From Amazon.com

Having outgrown the happy house of the green and brown albums and exploited narrative too complex for merely ambient techno, the Hartnoll brothers--Phil the elder and Paul the younger--really do find themselves in some vaguely Far Eastern adventure in The Middle of Nowhere. Thus they prove again that they are the most reliable innovators in danceable electronic composition. The inchoate political rage of 1994's Snivilisation is here, but it has found purely instrumental claws that are unafraid to dig for new melodies. "Know Where to Run" gathers itself from some beastly buzzing weather to become a dance-floor creature lurching through the village at night like some urban nightmare and "I Don't Know You People" turns the dance floor into an escapist fantasyland once more with its grousing refrain, "nothing changes--goddamn you!" The highly evolved vocal softness of "Autumn" and the weirdly Tangerine Dream-gone-hip-hop "Style" keep a trip-hop story line seamlessly borne out on jungle and electro beats. Nowhere comprises a portrait of boom-boom techno that carjacks beats once lost in space to whole new worlds where breakthrough songwriting is an aesthetic ideal. The U.K. act who forced the sales charts fully into the postrock '90s is now realizing the participatory promise of rock & roll liberation in the dance clubs, where music lives now. --Dean Kuipers

4.0 out of 5 stars WHITE, 2004/1/25
 「 これこそが元祖エレクトロ 」 前作、前々作よりも、さらに以前の オービタル に回帰したとも言われる5作目の 『ミドル・オブ・ノゥフェア 』。 見た目も明るく白で勝負してきました。 91年から5年の間に4枚のアルバムをリリースしてきた彼らが、3年間のブランクの末、打ち出した今作品。 中身は、底抜けに明るく始まり、後半はヒット・ナンバーのラッシュです。
 まず "WAY OUT " & "SPARE PARTS EXPRESS" の連作では、初期の頃の斬新さの中、2,3作前までに見られるもう一つの オービタルが見え隠れするのは、この 『MoN』 特有のグルーヴではないでしょうか。 打って変わってヘヴィなラインをカタチ取る "I DON'T KNOW YOU PEOPLE " 、そして壮大で美しく、後の 『 THE ALTOGETHER 』にその DNA を受け継ぐ "OTONO" 、ハイテンションで、キャッチー、それでいてどこかノスタルジック "NOTHING LEFT " から "STYLE" へと続く立ち振る舞いは、ハートノル・ブラザ-ズ の凄い所ですね。
