Bibio - Mind Bokeh (2011) [FLAC]

Bibios Stephen Wilkinson had such a major breakthrough with Ambivalence Avenue that anticipation about whether or not he could maintain such a breakneck pace of innovation was palpable. Mind Bokeh -- whose title was inspired by the photography term for the way a lens renders out-of-focus points of light -- is true to its name and Wilkinsons hyperactive creativity, but not in obvious ways. Though the title track dapples sparkling electronics over a luminous haze of distant nature samples, the rest of the album isnt exactly blurry. In fact, its sounds are often surprisingly hard-edged and chilly, especially compared to Ambivalence Avenues summery vibe. Yet Wilkinsons meticulous way of layering these crisp, immediate sounds with half-heard atmospheres is fascinating (especially under headphones), suggesting the intertwining of the present with dreams and memories, and the external world with the internal one.

If you are on a mac, Fluke works great for getting flac files into iTunes, and once they are imported you can convert to aiff or apple lossless. I usually set the program to do its thing with no other programs running because its a taxing process, but I have a LOT of full CD quality in my iTunes now because if this great little app, Fluke. Im sure there is something for windows, I searched 'import flac to itunes'
