Review

In 2007 Macro gained massive recognition with the groundbreaking 'Lunatic Fringe' EP. The label's 2008 follow up is as innovative, 'Expense Of Spirit' by Tuomi, the first external artist signing of the label, as well as Stefan Goldmann's first ever production for a band. Tuomi is a trio of voice, piano and double bass, lead by singer Kristiina Tuomi. Touring the globe from Europe to Bahrain to South Korea, Tuomi perform a unique blend of superb song writing and acoustic chamber composition. For their Macro debut, the trio is joined by live strings and an array of electronics, synths and drum machines, taking their signature concept to the dancefloor in full effect. The result is stunningly adventurous house music. The title track 'Expense of Spirit' comes with a mind blowing bass line, acting as a catchy counterpoint to the deep acoustic chords and strings. The B side also holds a minimalist dub version. 'Mourning Eyes' and 'Expense Miniature' reach far beyond the dancefloor, being another prime example of Macro's experimental direction. A pioneering four track EP showcasing what should be possible at the junction of acoustic and electronic music today.
