    There's potential in The Visitor's mix of electro, new wave, and pop, but it's obscuring or distorting Aguayo's personality, which is the engine that has driven his songs for so long.

    It is yet to produce anything quite as lovely as his 2002 minimal classic, Maria.

    Other than final track ‘A Certain Spirit’, the clearest crossover of irked techno and David Byrne-d, samba deconstruction, the melting pot (remember those aforementioned ingredients) that has gestated for five years ends up being served cold as gazpacho.

    A post-digital block party full of computer music whose Latinate rhythms and rolled Rs don't conform to grid or template.
