"If you’re a long-term fan of one or more of the participating groups or of modern acid rock in general, you won’t need much convincing to add this gem to your collection. But even if you’re completely unfamiliar with this whole scene, yet interested in dipping your toes into the wide world of spaced-out guitar music, I would highly recommend this idealized ISS homage as a gateway experience to the genre."

El Universo reminds me of an earlier time when all music was experimental. The music here has echoes of Cabaret Voltaire, Cluster, Neu! And Aphex Twin, but it forges its own path too, maybe reading a map left by others so that new areas can be explored. I’m in Scotland, so I was delighted to get a CD all the way from Mexico. I love, love, love this music. Peri Urban
