The latest in a long line of releases from conceptual art duo Matmos, this is less an album and more a collection of "sound portraits" of people who Matmos admire. Featuring collaborations with Bjork, Safety Scissors and even a garden snail this is avant-garde electronica at its best. (Nick Lawrence : Higher Frequency)
