Emmanuel Mario returns to Karaoke Kalk with his third album under his Astrobal moniker for the Berlin-based imprint. "L"uomo e la natura" ("Man and Nature") sees the prolific drummer and producer, who has worked with artists such as Laetitia Sadier and label mate Pink Shabab, take a different musical route than before. The French electronic music composer pays homage to the spirit of library music while also making concessions to different strains of pop and even classical music. With only two of the ten songs putting words to the music, "L"uomo e la natura" is a masterful exercise in the evocation of atmospheres: expressing much while saying very little outright-show, don"t tell.
