Purple Confusion - The Sound of the Atom Splitting (2002)

One-off LP of glitchy, downtempo IDM from a group that featured, in its 6-member lineup, both original members of M83. Fractured, stuttering beats and gauzily layered synths, with a sense of beautiful, melancholic wonder that brings to mind the spirit -- and occasionally, the sound -- of post-rock.
