Reviewed 2003-07-11
Male singer backed by ambient space music on top of a trip hop beat. Occassional female vocals kick in. Sounds like groggy Morcheeba with a castrated Trent Reznor singing.

1) Background music is adolescent James bond/space invaders. Singers drone over this like male Portishead in monotone.
2) Mellow, chikachik beat with woman singing over it like B52s Love Shack.
3) This time the male singer wants to be in Morcheeba. Big bass in the background, spacey sounds, and the man sing/talks.
4) Definitely NIN on estrogen. Shares the Morcheeba/Portishead feel of the rest
5) A repetitive melody with little interest, this man’s voice is plain.
6) The singer talks in raspy voice over familiar rolling base and high twangy space sounds. It gets a little more intense about half way through, then softens and finishes after a bit intense, repetitive whispering.
