Ligeti's second Tzadik release, 2008's AFRIKAN MACHINERY, finds him focusing on electronics, namely in his use of the Marimba Lumina, an instrument invented by electronics trailblazer Don Buchla. By combining these electronica elements with acoustic instruments, avant-garde strategies, and European and African influences, Ligeti creates a seductive sonic world of polyrhythms and shifting textures. Professional Reviews: The Wire (p.53) - "[A]n engaging polyrhythmic and polytextural music, motion based but also subtly layered for depth, contrast and unexpected closures." Format: CD (1 Disc); Stereo Country: USA Release Date: 24 June, 2008 Label: Tzadik Dimensions: 12.6 x 13.7 x 0.6 centimeters (0.06 kg)
