daniel andréasson: lp 1

LP 1 is the debut album from Swedish producer Daniel Andréasson, an artist that has both a sonically and artistic resemblance to the Skudge family of labels and artists. Pushing his eighth year of releasing records, Andréasson has accomplished the task of creating a debut album that seems to tie together the sound of his previous EPs. Andréasson's sound is in line with a more outsider approach, but with a dancefloor focus, a sound that he has been pushing since the beginning. This approach shines through at the most on the tracks such as "Mc35I# Rushup", "Stay", and "Dreams" as these specific tracks shows Andréasson's more accomplished style. In between, the album keeps a perfect concept throughout. Taking breathers with its interludes and in general "shorter" tracks that hints of an ambient-leaning urge to express himself, he never loses focus. A masterful debut album from an artist to keep your eye on.
