Last years Analord series - forty-one vinyl-only tracks spread over eleven volumes, collected together in a special binder - reinstated his reputation as technologically advanced shaman (of sorts) and stellar purveyor of acid-drenched basslines, floor-slaying electro and bewildering polyrhythms. On Chosen Lords, James brings together the best of that series, reworking and re-sequencing the fibrous strands of electro, acid and techno to create a mesmerizing tapestry rather than a dry collection of individual vignettes. Though the material is new, Chosen Lords sounds like a retrospective of all the various shape-shifting James has tried his hand at over the years. It's not his best work by any means but it serves to further highlight his individuality and show there's plenty of life in the AFX name yet. --Paul Sullivan (Review copyright Amazon.co.uk)...
