MAN Helping hands

Description

With Helping Hand, the French duo of Man have created a ten track album that seemingly pulls little bits from all of their influences (everyone including Ennio Morricone to Eric Satie and Tortoise) together into a hugely varied album of murky electronic chamber pop. Although their third album definitely has a general overall feel, multi-instrumentalists François Rasim Biyikli and Charles-Eric Charrier seem to revel a bit in throwing a wrench into the mix sometimes, veering wildly off course for rather successful detours.
