Wols - Unframe (Vinyl LP, CD)

I've been enjoying this for a few weeks now and whenever I've fancied listening to something a bit more upbeat to keep me going through a particularly busy period I've put on the Wols CD and almost everytime someone has asked 'what's this?'. Usually a good sign but then you also want to know what something is when it's total gash just so you don't accidentally play it again. Wols are a Russian duo making kind of old school melodic electronica. Though it's distinctly Russian, as it has a very slight clinical coldness about it, it's all bouncy and playful as well. It's not wussy melodic electronica.... it's dancefloor ish at times, other times it's more Plaid(y), maybe bits of Four Tet in there 'n all. Plenty of variation and interesting sounds to be had here. Well worth checking out!
