P'Taah is a
musical group which you can probably find sorted under
techno. Their album Compressed Light is really cool and sublimely
trippy; it consists of
ethereal,
free-sounding
jazz forms floating lightly through lanky
rhythms with a distinctly
drum n bass feel. The d&b used is very
organic and
non-standard, and not quite like anything you've ever heard-- they've aren't d&b really, they've moved beyond d&b, i just mention d&b because it's the closest thing i can come up with. It's really more a
jazz album than anything else.. it's definitely hard to describe.
The album features both extremely creative mixing and actual musical validity, two things which are becoming increasingly rare these days.
Anyway if you're into ambient or other techno music i would recommend this band highly. They're great.
