Like the soundtrack to some strange and alien horror movie, Peau Froide Léger Soleil by the dream team pair-up of Vainio & Vigroux will make for absorbing yet unsettling listening over chilly nights. The aural equivalent of a creepy old house in the middle of nowhere with creaky floorboards and doors that open by themselves, this is already sitting pretty as one of my albums of the year. While the majority of the music on here exists in a menacing, yet seductive fog of electronics, beats will suddenly erupt out of nowhere to keep the listener right on edge. This makes for a riveting, thrilling aural ride! Unusual and disquieting, one listen to this is the perfect example of how compelling experimental techno can be. Never content to get lost in a loop, or succumb to the monotony of the 4/4 beat the album merges the deep, booming synth pulses of Mika Vainio with the hushed atmospherics of Frank Vigroux to stunning effect. Dense, absorbing and occasionally mind-blowing, Peau Froide Léger Soleil is an adrenalin fuelled ride into the joys of the night. 10/10.
