Andy Butler is a fascinating pillar of the dancefloor, who deserves more recognition. Since he launched Hercules & Love Affair into the world, the Denver native has succeeded in mixing house, disco, techno and nu-disco together, sometimes in a solution of pure hedonism; sometimes opting for something more cerebral. This has led some to compare him to the late Arthur Russell, who also enjoyed playing with the rules of dance music and its descendants... With Omnion, Butler has invited various names to come and dive body and soul into his universe. After Antony Hegarty, John Grant and indeed Kele Okereke, this time he has brought out Sharon Van Etten, Faris Badwan from The Horrors, the Iceland natives of Sísý Ey and the Lebanese Mashrou' Leila. It's an eclectic cast list, which makes for high hopes that this record will be just as ineffable as his earlier works. You have to let go to listen to Hercules & Love Affair. Forget the references and the revisions. And let yourself be carried away by the often-subtle vibrations orchestrated by Andy Butler. © MD/Qobuz
