...according to our on 27 November 2006.

I had a dream about The Bee Gees last night. I think it was because of the whole Robin Gibb/Westlife and Barry Gibb/Barbara Streisand double pronged Christmas attack on the charts. It makes you wonder why they didn't get an old Maurice Gibb vocal and add it to the latest G4 tune for a posthumous hit. I'm sure he feels a bit left out lying there alone in his grave. Anyway this has absolutely nothing to do with the latest Joseph Auer CD on Wyrd Skies. Anyway this is quite lo-fi sounding electronica that taps into the 808 State/early Orb brand of drifty neo danceable melancholy. There's hints of Aphex Twin 'Selected Ambient Works'  and I got through the whole thing without saying the words 'chilled out'....damn!

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
