Pluxus - Solid State

When Sebastian Tesch, Adam Kammerland and Anders Ekert formed PLUXUS back in 1998, the Swedish electronic scene was almost entirely consisting of dull, uniform club music or introverted art music.
Influenced by Devo, Jean Jaques Perry and Kraftwerk through Aphex Twin and Matmos they set out to tell a very
different tale by trading in their traditional band instruments for vintage synths, computers and a sampler. Thus PLUXUS began to emit a blend of electro-pop BOOMKAT aptly described as ‘Kraftwerk meets Sesame Street’.
Originally self-released in 2007, ‘SOLID STATE’ caught the attention of co-owner / DJ MICHAEL MAYER who was
immediately captured and impressed by their inventive ways of veering away from the systematic approach typically taken with techno . Banjos strum over rollover breaks and beats with ‘Transient’, the romantic French flair that
permates ‘Perm’, the technofied ruckus that omits from ‘Contax’ and finally leading the album off with two early Aphex inspired lullabies ‘Solid State’ and ‘Slow Peel’.
