It's the next phase of Monday's advance into electronics. His debut LP, Smorgasbord was an IDJ album of the year, a "classic" in One Week to Live and an "LP we can't put down", according to DJ mag. But his new CD, Songs Without Words, is a step beyond. Simulaneously serious and light hearted, it's Monday staking out a big claim for electronic. But while its humour pushes the album well away from the predictable monotony of today's dance music, it's the most committed European electronica acts supporting Monday's ideas. With fans from Kiki to Tiefschwarz, Will Saul to Falko Brocksieper, Alex Flatner to to Anthony Collins, MANDY to incredible support from Laurent Garnier
