The minimal techno of Wishmountain was one of Matthew Herbert's first musical endeavours, and some fifteen years after Wishmountain Is Dead, the one album he recorded under the name, the producer has elected to return to the project with a new album that explores similarly uniquely conceptual ideas. As the title suggests Tesco was loosely inspired by a trip to his local supermarket, with the elements of each track made exclusively from the sounds of the ubiquitous high street supermarket chain's most popular items (according to a 2010 survey in The Grocer magazine) The results are as glitchy and leftfield as you'd expect from a contrary producer such as Herbert and the set of oddly driving tunes that pop, rumble and shuffle with spliced-up intent make for infinitely more palatable listening than his previous Pig based work.
