Laplaceausoleil (‘theplaceinthesun’ in one word) are Dieter Krause and Frank Hellmond who write their tracks by sending each other material (Postal Service stylee). ‘Platz Rufus’ is about people who end up looking like their dog, some good sounds – like a trancier Alter Ego, the kind of stuff Sven Vath plays at Cocoon. ‘Quo Vas?’ plods a deep narco soundtrack. Equally avant-garde but more driving and hypnotic, ‘To Swim’ doesn’t let go (eerie vibes and weird harmonica).
