Fairmont
Jacob Fairley from Montreal has been filtering through slight gems for the past couple of years now, dividing loyalties between the two predominant european cities, Berlin via Sender records and Köln's Traum imprint. And it is the Traum massive who benefit from this ambitious full length album. This year the label has consistently backed winning formulas in the album stakes, an excellent worldwide view on "Interkontinental", an inspired selection of kindred spirits for the recent "Reprocessed" set just plain old, good roster management for the sterling Iquinn set from earlier in the year.
