Strange duo- M voc, drum machine, synths, some guitar. Most songs are about 2 mins of odd singing, simple beats, unexpected harmonies. Home-based studio experiments?
1. Rockabilly guitar, mid-fast drums, tape-warbled vocals
2. jaunty organ, deep vocals mixed w/vocals pitch-shifted way up.
3. Spoken English “Congratulations”
+4. Pretty synths, cartoon samples “I wanna go home”
5.Fast beats, pseudo-techno?
+6. acoustic guitar, vocal attempts at Tuvan throat-singing. Outsider.
+7.off-kilter peppy little instrumental
8. “Crooning” and echoing synth
+9. Pretty voices lah-lah-lahing, clean electric guitar strums, and yet disturbing.
10. Bus stop sounds at intro, then kids voice & repetitive bass, synth. Half-baked.
11.A little bit of an argument, gliding tones, chanting, beats
12.sexy F talking overdubbed w/a little singing, guitar, looped beat
13.Minor key, M vocals sung/chanted in unison. Sounds Balkan
14.Brassy synth, epic sound
+15.Opens with party sounds & oriental-ish drums. Wordless vocals, peppy synths.
+16.Instrumental. Peppy martial drumming, Residents-like guitar (strange chords repeated in a pop manner) and detuned noodling
17.Wet sounds, drumming, robot vocal. Spacey pop? Mid-tempo
+18.Cheezy Casio melody, occasional angry cat sounds
19.Percussion. beats that don’t quite jive, ricochet sample & “dum deed dah” vocal . A little bass in the middle. Grows on you by the end.
