Poème Électronique PE1516 by Joe Claussell is a captivating album that blends electronic music with a soulful, tribal sound. The album features a range of tracks that showcase Claussell's ability to create immersive soundscapes that transport the listener to another world.

The album opens with "Morning Prayer," a hauntingly beautiful track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The use of chimes and ethereal vocals create a sense of tranquility, while the pulsing beat adds an element of energy.

As the album progresses, Claussell continues to experiment with different sounds and textures. "Cosmic Ritual" features a driving beat, with layers of percussion and synths building to create a hypnotic groove. "Mafungo" is another standout track, with its tribal rhythms and African-inspired vocals.
