Ian Pooley’s album ‘In Other Words’ examines the changing forces of techno and house but clearly manifests his own voice among all the diverse tongues of electronic music. A journey of songs cutting through a complex soundscape – covering ground from the compelling summer hymn „Piha” to NuDisco bomb „Heaven”. All in all, the 14 tracks range between the atmospheric, deep and exuberant. His „Intro” as well as his „Blue Interlude” serve as an oasis within a sparkling masterpiece. The true beginning marks “5 a.m.”, a hymn where Brazilian-style percussions are getting more and more unleashed, embedded by ever-changing soundscapes. „It´s You” draws its power from Pooley’s versatile beats together with smooth vocals and jazzy blue notes. amazing in its elegance and airiness.
