Plat Du Jour

Descripción

Product Description Plat du Jour is Matthew Herbert’s first new album since 2003’s acclaimed and hugely successful Goodbye Swingtime. Featuring contributions from Dani Siciliano, master chef Heston Blumenthal (recreating Stacey Lawton’s final meal on Death Row) world coffee authority Antony Wild and long time Radiohead collaborator Stanley Donwood, 30,000 broiler chickens, 3255 people eating apples and a recreation of the lunch shared by Tony Blair and George Bush run over by a Chieftain tank. Moving back to his more electronic style, the music of Plat Du Jour is at once playful and ominous. With a staggering attention to detail Plat Du Jour promises to be a genre defining moment in modern electronic music. Review Matthew Herbert has managed to explode the dry conservatism of the avant garde by, radically, having fun. -- The Guardian
