Future Primitives

Here's another hour of accessible fin de si¨cle dance music from Vancouver's hugely prolific Bill Leeb and Rhys Fulber (also known as Frontline Assembly and Delerium). Early pioneers of the now-ubiquitous monastic and Central African vocal samples, these studio recluses sprinkle all kinds of third-world field recordings atop evocative synths and burbling rhythms. Clubbers and armchair dreamers alike will find tracks like "Mantra" and "Blackhole Amazon" edgy and intriguing. --Jeff Bateman
