A Collection Of Ice Cream Vans Vol. II

"Debut album from Tele:Funken (aka Tom Fenn). With influences ranging from Kraftwerk to Bach, and Aphex Twin and Eric Satie. A Collection of Ice Cream... has a unique sense of wonkiness and innocent melodies. The first fruits of his labour arrived via a joint album with Flying Saucer Attack (Distant Station, issued by Drag City in the US). Tom grew up in Brighton, moved to Bristol and now resides in Birmingham where he is part of the ever burgeoning, genre-straddling scene of bohemian producers that includes Broadcast, Pram, Plone and Surgeon." "Second full length album following a series of singles ('Breakdown Test' and 'Excellence in Amps, Volts and Watts', both Domino) from a Brummie named Tom Fenn. Borderline lounge at times, it could be said that a certain allegiance (if only in spirit) with the contempo-motorik of Cologne (L@N, Schlammpeitzeiger) wan't entirely off base, although a cringe-inducing aura of whimsy can occasionally creep in and do some damage. Pretty damn IDM." -- Hrvatski.
