  • Fans of Border Community-style electronica rejoice: Canadian producer Jesse Somfay will release a double disc collection of new material later this month. Somfay has been relatively quiet over the past year, aside from a release of archival material, but he'll return with A Catch in the Voice, nearly two hours of what Archipel is claiming sounds like "Boards of Canada working with James Holden or Minilogue." Judging from Somfay's previous work, we have no doubt that's the case. To celebrate the release, the label has announced that there will be 50 limited-edition collector's versions of the album made available, which will be hand numbered and contain a number of Polaroid pictures taken by Somfay. Get 'em while you can, though, as if they aren't sold out already, they soon will be. Tracklist CD 1 01. Elegian Station 02. Cuckoo Spit 03. Hypnogogii 04. Brave Late Fade 05. Good Morning Strange Light 06. Folding Ghosts Into Origami Stars 07. Ex Astris, Ad Astra 08. Irradian Irradiant CD 2 01. Scotia 02. Amo Alucinor 03. Something Smallest 04. Algonquin 05. Averroes 06. Tomorrow's Yesterday Is Today 07. Borealis 08. NoTR Archipel will release Jesse Somfay's A Catch in the Voice on March 31, 2009.
