  • F Communications main man and one of the most credible, widely respected and varied producers to represent the French has his new album slated for delivery next month. Laurent Garnier's new album, The Cloud Making Machine, is said to be his most personal album to date. This, his forth album, is to be released on the well distributed Mute record label on February 22. The album features a host of collaborations with musicians across an incredible array of genres and sounds. This includes Norwegian jazz pianist Bugge Wesseltoft (who previously played on stage with Garnier at Sonar), Tunisian singer and master oude player Dhafer Youssef, Scan X on guitar (also responsible for sound design), Sangoma Everett with percussion and vocals, Marc Chalosse on keyboards and Philippe Nadaud with his saxophone. It is this mix of talent that mesh with Garnier's incredible style to provide The Cloud Making Machine – not to be confused with you're standard artist albums.

    It is also worth taking into consideration that this is not your standard banging electronic release (and probably not something you can dance too) but will be well worth checking out.
