Aus: "Lang" (Preco) This is the work of one Yasuhiko Fukuzomo, who on first listening summoned up comparisons to Kieran Hebden's Fourtet project. This is very much discernible through the use of twinkling melodies, chiming textures and glistening colours tempered by percussive beats and good use of space between sounds. Not quite as organic as my early comparisons are the pitched up synthetic beats on "Halo" which is countered by the live drums on track three "Double Talk". A fine album of blue but polished electronica if you like: Neo Oiuja, Expanding, CCO. Not at all challenging, easily digestible. I'll leave the technological guesswork to the boffins out there.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

aus is a one-person project by Yasuhiko Fukuzono from Tokyo. This is his the fourth full-length release, following two limited cd-r edition releases for the Belgian label U-Cover and first proper release for Music Releated from U.S.

Lang is an exquisite mix of IDM and beauty pop electronica album. aus makes beautiful and rhythmical sound with intricate percussive beats, bright and melancholic melodies. His before album " Sonorapid " has many vocal tracks. But this new one is instrumental album for fans of brightly sweet electronica/IDM.

Mastered by Benge (Expanding).
