SAITO Vinilo y CD

Review: Seminal Frankfurt imprint Mille Plateaux had a much anticipated reboot two years ago, with label owner Achim Szepanski overseeing a prolific and consistent quality of output - almost like that of his label's heyday in the early noughties. Its latest release is another great one which comes from Lena Saito, who debuted for the imprint earlier this year under her Galcid alias. Under her birth name on Downfall, she presents a collection of jagged and contorted IDM experiments co-produced by her husband, the veteran producer Hisashi Saito. Unscored and predominantly improvised, it is a sound best described by the label as 'something possibly making more sense to enlightened minds a thousand years in the future.'
