Café Mor

Released

Café Mor was a real place — a solar-powered food truck made from a converted fishing boat that sat on the beach in Wales for over a decade. The connection between their food and Mick Harris’s crawlingly slow, concussive post-dub electronic music is known only to him, but Harris has often given tracks quotidian but slightly off-kilter titles; there are pieces on this album called “The Lower the Middle Our Bit” and “Who Are They Which One.” It’s a play with language worthy of the late Mark E. Smith of the Fall, which makes it unsurprising that Jason Williamson, frontman of Sleaford Mods and heir to Smith’s crown as king of the British working-class cranks, pops up on “Talk Whiff.”
