Joeboy In Mexico [Tuxedomoon] (1998)


"This record has something for everyone. Alot of "ambient" in the true sense of the word. Some minimalist a la satie; bass and clarinet as opposed to bass and drum, some groove-trance and a bit of imaginary film-soundtrack...plus a great cover of colored engravings.""So close your eyes and cross the threshold with members from Tuxedomoon, a passage to and through a Mexico both ancient and po-mo, a soundscape where an electric guitar can appear to be a waterfall and the sounds of waterfalls can resemble winds rushing through Aztec pyramids...where a serene clarinet and bass guitar piece can go down like a smooth sip of tequila, but as so often with Tuxedomoon, watch out for the haunting quality which can cause a catch in the throat...move to the undulating jauntiness of saxophones, slinky guitars and rhythm tracks by the light of the luminerias, and pass through the shadows and fog of aural dimensions.Cross all musical borders with "Joeboy in Mexico," from world music to ambient and beyond, and listen to the sound-trek from the best film you'll "see" this year."
