Manchester based trio Gogo Penguin have produced what will undoubtedly become yet another critically acclaimed Tour De Force in the form of ‘Man Made Object’. Their boundary blurring Jazz brings elements of trip hop, classical and ambient and fuses those disparate style seamlessly. Typified by skittering broken beats, deep upright bass steps and sublime piano lines, it’s hard to image just three guys are producing the kinds of aural landscapes that they conjure up. Picking out highlights on this set is difficult, this really is an album to savour as a whole. However, the swaggering beat of ‘Branches Break’, the emphatic ‘Quiet Mind’, the slower tempo ‘Intimate’ and almost drum and bass ‘Protest’ are truly excellent moments on a stunning album.
