Cracking review of 'Dial Wookie' on Is This Music.

Iglomat           'Dial Wookie'             (KFM Records)

'Dial Wookie' is lifted from Iglomat's wonderful debut album (reviewed at http://www.isthismusic.com/iglomatmore-2390). It's an elegiac, gorgeous fusion of live instruments and programming, sounding enigmatic and warm, with its gorgeous tones wrapping you up like a Wookie's embrace. It comes on like a more lush Mogwai, dreamy and dangerous, suave and bruised, packing a lot into its three or so minutes. 'Achtung Kitler (DJ NST Remix) is a reworking of another track from the album. It has a stark, glacial feel, very eerie yet beautiful, all crystalline percussion, weird melodies and vocal samples to the fore. Post-rock meets dub-step might sound like a trite comparison but it seems very apt in describing this compelling remix. Wonderful stuff.
