funami

An album all done with one voice. By any standards, Funami's debut album is a sleek, dramatic slice of electronica, but it's startling when you know that the 10 songs are created from just one voice. What we initially believe to be a bank of rubbery bass synths, celestial arpeggiators and guitar

FX turns out to be the net result of putting vocalist

Alex Dsilets through a whole shed-load of studio wizardry. Even the drum sounds take their origins from this guy's fricative and plosive vocalizations. All of it painstakingly assembled by Tiago Conceição.

The Canadian-Portuguese project has resulted in what the Portuguese now call the "Vox Machina", a whole album of original and soulful electronic music, given warmth by being built, note by note and beat by beat, from a human voice.

One voice-one album!
