Merz...

Merz – or Conrad Lambert as he's otherwise known – has produced some of the most memorable music of the past 10 years so I'm very excited by his new new album, Moi Et Mon Camion, which is released on Monday.

Merz are a bit trip-hop, a bit lamenting ballad, a bit infused with Arabian beats and a bit electro. The music is ever-evolving and quite hard to describe or categorise but his first two albums, Merz and Loveheart, are brim-full of beautifully crafted songs and still make regular appearances on the From Beer To Paternity Towers CD player while lesser artists have gone by the wayside.

So check out his website on www.myspace.com/merzuk if you are intrigued in any way, shape or form. You will not be disappointed. It's wonderful stuff.

And Presume Too Much from the new CD is fantastic...
