Lapalux - Closure
Unfounded claims that Lapalux is a spaceman aside, ‘Closure’ promises a follow up to 2013’s ‘Nostalchic’ that has lost none of the ingenuity.
Whether it’s bizarrely mysterious back-stories or detailed depictions of the afterlife, it’s pretty much a staple of Flying Lotus’ Brainfeeder label that its artist’s music is not of this world. Lapalux is no exception. Straight from somewhere among the stars, ‘Closure’, the first single taken from his forthcoming second album ‘Lustmore’, is peacefully surreal. Spacey synth lines and futuristic, watery wobbles underpin Szjerdene’s floaty vocals. Where Lapalux is often haphazard, jarring and glitchy ‘Closure’ is Lapalux on a Sunday afternoon; serene, flowing and decisive.
Most notable for her previous work with Bonobo, Szjerdene is hot property in lo-fi electronic music; nobody rides a tranquil soundscape quite like her. With the addition of her vocals ‘Closure’ could in fact easily be mistaken for a ‘North Borders’ track, an album which ironically enough cites Lapalux as a heavy influence. Influence and unfounded claims that Lapalux is a spaceman aside, ‘Closure’ promises a follow up to 2013’s ‘Nostalchic’ that has lost none of the ingenuity, immaculate production and carefully structured beauty that is to be expected from him.
