Space is the place

LCD Soundsystem may have blotted their copybook to a certain degree in recent years, but personally speaking, at least, they remain an extremely important band - the gateway drug that got this long-time dance-phobe to begin to understand and even appreciate club culture.

If it wasn't for James Murphy and company, I doubt I would ever have got obsessed with the analogue techno of Factory Floor's 'Fall Back' and the album from which it came, and subsequently actively requested a review copy of FF founder Nik Colk's solo LP. Bucked Up Space is some considerable distance outside my wheelhouse, to borrow an Americanism, but that didn't stop me from enjoying it. Buzz review here.
