Xylitol, the electronic project of producer and DJ Catherine Backhouse, returns with Blumenfantasie, her highly anticipated second album on Planet Mu Records. Following her acclaimed debut Anemones, Backhouse shifts up the refinement and musical breadth, delivering a sophisticated exploration of electronic music that spans multiple sonic territories.
Blumenfantasie showcases Xylitol's impressive range, rolling through detailed jungle workouts that flutter and bleep, through beatless ambience, and taking a rare dip below 160 bpm for the elegiac "Mirjana" - the album's most explicit nod to Krautrock featuring a drum break chopped up from Amon Duul II's anthemic "Archangel's Thunderbird". The album also features notable collaborations with Sculpture on "Chromophoria" and The Leaf Library on "Bowed Clusters," adding even more texture to this compelling sonic journey.
