Another Christmas present and I’m less than convinced by the Mobile Disco experience. It sits somewhere between minimal techno and something more commercial. It’s not really funky techno but neither is it tech house, but I guess that’s as near as you’ll get description wise. Maybe I’m being harsh but it all sounded like the techno equivalent of lift music. Where’s the soul, the passion the energy?
Sadly, I’m
sure DJ’s love this kind of stuff. It’s definitely not cheesy in anyway, shape
or form, but a touch of even some rancid yoghurt would have livened things up
let alone some fully fledged cheese. It’s polished, inoffensive electronic
noodle doodling and the kind of music, I perhaps misguidedly believe, I could
make myself if I bought some expensive equipment and an Apple Mac. Which is unlikely on both counts.
I realise I’m
underselling this album, but I honestly can’t think of a time when playing this
music would be in anyway pleasurable. Maybe in the greenhouse for tomatoes to
grow to? Perhaps for new age pensioners to meditate to? I doubt it would even
be any good for driving around London to in the rain, at night with all your
guys in the backseat.
There are no
tracks worthy of a mention. Worthy of attention for fans only or if you have a
specific purpose for playing bland funkyish techno other than enjoyment.
