Downbeat is surely an appropriate word for this excellent CD of independent Aussie electronica. If we are looking for comparisons, Lorca has an early Portishead, slightly dark feel at times, that is derived in part from the pace and in part from Lorraine Campbell's sultry vocal style. The abstract feel works exceptionally well, as does the mix of analogue and digital sounds, and the mix of styles in different tracks ensures that the album has plenty of variety. Yet the feel and musical identity is retained throughout, and Lorca is surely an album that will stand the test of time. Look out for the next project from Sailfish Pantry, who have been selected as part of the Noise Festival on Triple J radio in Australia during October 2003.

Airom Bleicher, sequencing maestro, says of his work: Sailfish Pantry is a surreal downbeat electronic project by Airom Bleicher often featuring samples taken from vocal improvisation by Lorraine Campbell. Change and free association are the most common themes. Repetition and minimalist idleness are explored and broken away from, drifting off in the same way that our thoughts and fantasy does. Musical styles are often bounced from bar to bar or layered on top of one another.
