I previously reviewed an EP by this Korean/Japanese project by the same name, but this is a full album called UFO. Things haven't changed much since then, but that doesn't mean this isn't worth a listen.

The ingredients of 10's music are the same: heavy electronic throbs, coming from Marqido's laptop, indeed sounding like an U.F.O. landing, paired with Itta's voice and toyinstruments coming across as an alien trying to communicate with the listener in her own peculiar language. Most music takes the (free)form of improvisation, but every now and then, like in SSKKBBII, there's a some sort of songstructure by way of melody and harmony. The material on UFO is recorded live in various places like Tokyo, Bangkok, Osaka, Seoul and Shanghai and indeed this music sounds like something that should be experienced live, especially with the strong visual image these two have created for themselves.

10's unique sound possibly appeals to those interested in the music from Japan as well as electronic music from the seventies (roughly OOIOO meets Klaus Schulze). Those familiar with the previous releases will surely enjoy this, and those outside Asia might get more eager to see the two perform live.
