Originally released on Mush Records in 2004, Warp Records found it timely to reissue the debut album from Stephen Wilkinson, aka electronic musician Bibio.
'Fi' introduced the world to Wilkinson's pastoral electronics, found sounds, and guitar lines. The mixture of ambient electronics, atonal drones, and natural sounds proved infectious, though as often imitated as this style of music is, few pull it off as well as Bibio. "Bibio is the antidote to the modern laptopia of pristine electronic music, curing us with majestic drones, gnarly disintegrating guitars and warbling tape loops filtered through your parent's broken 1970's hi-fi" Marcus Eoin, Boards of Canada.
