But the music they make as A Mountain Of One would only have value in discotheques with beds: it has already been tagged by those canny folk at Vice magazine as "future Balearic classics". AMO1 themselves recall the experimental dance outfits of the early 90s such as Ultramarine and the Orb, whose epic, exploratory ambient techno was steeped in krautrock and the "Canterbury Scene" of Soft Machine et al. Early-70s fetishists, their songs, often 10 minutes long, are slow and meanderingly melodic, and their ambition is to make the 21st century Dark Side Of The Moon. Their lead singer has the tremulous voice of a latter-day Bryan Ferry and their music is epic with pretensions towards the elegiac and exquisite. A Mountain Of One love the 70s, only instead of punk and disco it's to the proggy and dreamy, elegant yet enervated West Coast 70s of the Floyd and Fleetwood Mac that they aspire: Ride, their limited-edition debut single from last summer which sold out in days, recalled the luscious MOR motorik of Lindsey Buckingham's compositions for the Mac. The recent EP2, which also sold out immediately, furthered their adventures beyond the ambient-techno ultraworld in fine style: lead tracks Innocent Line and People Without Love (featuring beat poet Jamie Kelsey) are typical of AMO1's serene electronica, reminiscent of Avalon-era Roxy Music, with its sense of a pastoral idyll in the urban jungle. New single Brown Piano is to be lifted as a single from their forthcoming EP compilation, and comes with a remix from Swedish GUM favourites Studio. It was recorded at James Lavelle/Unkle's All Surrender studio with Pablo Clements of Psychonauts, with whom they achieved the song's strange, disorientating effect, making it sound as though it could have come from any period from the last 35 years of sonic British invention. The Studio remix accentuates the slow-but-steady chug of AMO1's dubbishly spacious psych-kraut motorik MOR. A Mountain Of One's Collected Works is not a greatest hits compilation but rather the debut album release, made up of two EPs and one new track, from a London-based collective consisting of three core members. It is unlike any other album you'll hear this year.
