Imtech is a young man from Catalonia, Spain who creates experimental electronic music characterized by mellow and fragile melodies, strong harmonies and simple rhythms with landscape song structures. In a musical environment he began to learn clasical music theory when he was only a child and learned to play the piano shortly thereafter. Later, he was part of an indie-pop band with school mates named Patetiks. After some live shows they gave the band up, and shortly after Imtech starting experimenting with a new sound, thanks to the Warp Records, R&S and Rephlex Records releases that his brother was listening to at the time. Now, you have present day Imtech, lovely spanish electro-pop, transporting you to the nearest beach with a tall cerveza in your hand. You bring the tanning oil.

Reviewer:rdgb989 - - June 30, 2007 Subject: For sooth, a gem on the web This EP is definitely worth downloading. The sounds on these tracks will please fans of B.O.C., William Orbit, Ochre, Tycho, and other staples of this genre. These four songs have a clean freshness about them, and produce feelings of watching clouds pass by while lying on a hilltop of soft grass. Imtech has struck gold with this EP, as will anyone else who finds this while searching for thoughtful, aesthetically pleasing electronic music. Highly recommended.
Reviewer:matthewlynch - - May 18, 2005 Subject: Elementary, MyDearWatson! If I had to pick two artists that could be combined to form this vision, I might very quickly come to the same conclusion as MyDearWatson does and I don't think it's undeserved or incorrect comparison.
This album shares the simplistic beauty and sense of wonder that makes Boards of Canada so incredible with a spacious quality found in some of Squarepusher or Aphex Twin's work, perhaps like Dr. Alex Patterson's earlier work. Echoes and soft melodies reminiscent of music boxes under the influence of a strong dose of ketamine.
This is definitely some quality work.
