John Frusciante - Maya

Wow, the user score is a disgrace.
This album is a fitting homage to 90s electronica, mainly focused on tasty jungle/idm grooves. It surprised me pleasantly because Frusciante's electronic records thus far were not very appealing to me (and tbh after Enclosure I had given up hope).
But here he is, releasing a solid record and totally 'getting' what made 90s electronica great. It is not reinventing the wheel, and the tracks do not add up to a greater whole, but individually they work pretty well.
I am not sure yet if I really want this, but it would be interesting if some of his ideas were incorporated to RHCP's sound as well.
Who knows.
