First full-length cd (12 tracks, 68') for Luis F. Seixas a.k.a. Sci-Fi Industries, after the CDep "Dead people on stylish chairs" issued by This.co some months ago. What immediately strikes while listening to "Architectural Development" is the incredible improvement in the musical proposal of this young Portugues electronic artist. His sound palette is richer, there's more variety within single tracks and in the whole work, and most of all the sound quality itself is so much better that in "Dead people...". It's like every single beat (which sounded quite minimal in the ep) has now a kind of depth or arrangement of his own, and a sense for layers composition prevents tracks from becoming repetitive or static. The final result is a mature and totally enjoyable mix of techno, breakbeat, electronica and IDM falling somewhere near Warp-like projects, with hypnotic rhythms and elegant, nocturnal melodic patterns. A great album which absolutely deserves recognition and distribution outside Portugal.
