Album Description

Lemonade Electrica redefines the sound of downtempo as we know it. Aratones' definitive sound has been coined, "Downtempo meets Dub Rock in a Firehouse." They have incorporated a heavily bodied mix of deep dub, ambient textures, moody soundscapes, and blissful breaks. This is an essential chillout album from start to finish.

Thievery Corporation fans will like this release.......2006-01-19

Man I love this album. It totally sounds like Thievery Corporation meets Kruder & Dorfmeister. Lemonade Electrica is dubby, downtempo grooves galore. Tracks like Midnight Dub Rock, Polyvinyl and Residence sound like they stepped right off of one of the Hi-Fidelity Lounge series tracks from Guidance Records who's not even around anymore. So if you're looking for a new artist to check out and you dig Thievery Corporation or dubby downbeat electronica then definitely check these guys out as their music is great!

A refreshing take on downtempo dub!.......2005-05-13

With my first listen I became a fan of this album. It was quite refreshing to hear such warm sounding production and such an organic approach to dubby downtempo. I particularly like the tracks "Polyvinyl", "Residense" and "Melado". They have a great spacey/atmospheric feel to them while maintaining an interesting broken beat dub foundation. I am a big fan of Rockers Hi-Fi , Sofa Surfers, Noiseshaper, and most of the Different Drummer productions and Aratone gracefully falls right into the mix. I recommend this album to all fans of dubby downtempo and electronica! Anyone know if they are doing shows?

A break through in music!!!!.......2005-03-21

A future masterpiece in music history.. This album is the break through in electroic dub music. Every track on this album is superb and unique with its own style. If you like kruder & dormeister, lemon jelly, thievery corporation, amon tobin, and bonobo this is the album for you. 2 thumbs up!!!

Great listen. Heavy Jamaican dub influence - rub-a-dub baselines peppered with funky, organic melodies. The entire album is sprinkled with spontaneous bursts of sound and rhythm; synthesized drops, sparse drumbeats and even a movie line sample or two.

As in dancehall, the baseline drives much of tunes on this album but not overly so. Just enough to hold the line. The interchange between melody and harmony is well played - each giving space to the overall sound of the music. Example - "Ghost Town @ 5" is an airy, minimalist mix of sound and space. Definitely well done.

Obviously I dug this album. I thought it was inventive, creative, laid back but not in a quiet storm kind of way. More like an after midnight vibe with a Red Stripe brew and a welcoming opportunity.

Pick up this record. Check out the drum funky "Put together" and the conga flavor of "Legionaries". Nice!
