Future 3 – unknown to most as Pole and Coldcut collaborators – return after a three year break with an outstanding album of effortlessly melancholic and refreshing open-minded electronica. The lo-fi glitch’n’click beats and dreamy atmospherics of opener ‘Frisk’ sit comfortably beside the broken hip-hop of ‘Cim’ or the delicate future dub of ‘Reverberate’. But it’s the inclusion of decidedly ‘indie’ guitar and vocals from Jonas Bjerre that lends an unexpected and very welcome slant to ‘Like’ and ‘Do/Don’t’, while album closer ‘A Sound’ – all breathy vocals and Orbital-at-half-speed machine beats – deserves to be a hit.
