Entry #25: Jan Jelinek - Loop Finding Jazz Records



What I love about minimal, glitch electronica is the way it functions as a near perfect decoction of the essence of music.  The reality is that when broken down, all music is just rhythm and noise, and glitch electronica understands this.

As the name suggests, the tunes on LFJR are made up of heavily manipulated Jazz samples and meticulously fused with glitchy, micro-House beats.  The beauty of this album for me is its reduction; the beats click, pop and fizz over minimal soundcapes all punctuated by percussive end tones.

I have lots of music very similar to this, but to me, this particular albums is one of the best examples of the genre.
