Luke Vibert aka Wagon Christ is back (once again). Behold. The only man to have recorded full length albums for Rephlex, Warp, Mo’ Wax and the mighty Ninja, the Cornwall School’s answer to Marcel Duchamp (only kitscher), the man who put the sticky wet patches into ambient, the magic tricks into drill ‘n’ bass, the rip into, erm, instrumental hip hop, the only living musician trying to keep Vicks’ market share up.

What can we possibly tell you? That “Saddic Gladdic” comes on like the Jackson 5 being beaten to death by Speedy Gonzales at Butlins? That “Shadows” uses an organ sound so utterly mournful and yet also utterly ludicrous you want to weep and laugh while making your testes dance up and down? That “UBFormby” sounds like Scratch Perry dubbing up the entire city of Blackpool? That “Nighty Night” features a Motown bassline and someone playing a tune on a violin made from a live cat? That we really have absolutely no idea what we’re talking about?

“Sorry I Make You Lush” displays all the trademark Wagon Christ tricks - woozy, gaudy, beautiful kitschtronica, the tightest, tidiest funk drummage and anus-wobbling sub bass. But there is, of course, a little more than that. Mr Vibert does it again – before you know it you’re gulping down endless handfuls of sugar-coated avant garde pills and not even noticing the levels of cleverness, the sheer range of inventiveness, the subtlety of this West Country music machine.

“Innovative and sophisticated.”
Mojo

“A happy, penguin-chilled sunset beach barbecue of a collection… Another inspired album.”
NME

“Bouncy, inventive dance music with a sense of humour… A tour de force of electronica fun.”
Word

“If DJ Shadow lived in Hackney, smoked a bit more bush and employed a cheeky sense of humour, he might just sound this good.”
Knowledge

“Trademark twitchy samples, tight, funky breaks and spooky synth lines … a more solid, song-based affair than its predecessor, and more summery too.”
GQ

“Bleedin’ great.”
Time Out

“Wayward Cornish maestro Luke Vibert ups the ante with a sparkling new release… A bold display of clips and cuts.”
Wire

“Subtle, three-in-the-morning beats that still manage to make you boogie. Thank you for making us lush.”
DJ

“Perfect listening for a dreamy summer's day.'
BBC Collective

'An adventure that only seems to get better and better.'
