For Market Led Komputer have adapted a specific set of 'day job' influenced sampling parameters. When not wrestling with filters, sequencers and processors, David and Simon assemble and disassemble the stalls at Spitalfields Market, giving them random access to abandoned vinyl left over from the days trade. Deciding this was an appropriate way to acquire source material, they set about constructing tracks on the album out of samples from the orphaned records.
This may just be the coolest edge of dance record of the year. It has house music as sparse as an underground car park at midnight, acid robo disco like it's coming from your subconscious, freaky percussive journeys, Zen loops and beautifully displaced piano mantras. The sound of a kick drum banging on the door of post-structuralist philosophy, it's a full on celebration of the hyper-plasticity of sound and the joy of rhythm.
