Isolée — Lost (2003)

October 11th, 2010

Pio­neer of micro­house music; Isolée, is play­ing a live set first time ever in Fin­land next sat­ur­day.

He’s prob­a­bly most well known for this “Beau Mot Plage”–release, which is cred­ited to be the first micro­house record ever to reach the club charts (with a lit­tle help from Freeform Five).

For me the track above (“Lost”) was the first one I heard from him (I think it was year 2003..) and I was imme­di­ately attracted by it’s glitchy and obscure soundscapes.

His full lenght albums; “Rest” & “We Are Mon­ster”, are both very rec­om­mend­able pieces to be famil­iar­ized with.
