Luomo is one of the many projects of Finnish producer Sasu Ripatti, whose other monikers include Uusitalo, Ripatti, Sistol and most notably Vladislav Delay. The majority of these projects operate under the umbrella of the "Microhouse" genre, which means that the typical drum sounds of House music have been replaced by glitchy samples of static and noise. While Vladislav Delay explores the more abstract ends of this sound, Luomo falls closer to traditional Deep House, relying on relatively straightforward 4/4 beats and soulful vocal samples (Uusitalo lies somewhere in the middle of this scale). "Vocalcity" is a landmark album for the Microhouse sound, a pioneering release along with Ricardo Villalobos' early works.
