Komputer "Market Led" Album Review

Flawed experimental concept album
"Market Led" is a concept album; the concept in this case being that the source material was whatever Baker and Leonard found left behind after working their day jobs at Spitalfields Market.

As such, it's firmly in the experimental electronica tradition, comparable to (say) Oval or Matmos, or later albums from Autechre. But for all that I like that kind of music, somehow this album has failed to stick in my head with repeated listening. I'm not sure whether the failure is mine or theirs.

Cosmo Vitelli "Clean" Album Review

Party Day is brilliant, then there's the rest...
I really like this album, but it could have been a bit stronger/more consistent: PARTY DAY is one of the best electro-tech/pop-dance songs EVER - great vocals, construction, breakdown, vibe - this deserved to be a hit, but sadly never was. ICONS and ROBOT SOUL come second - but aside from these singles, the rest of the album pales, just like Cosmo's debut VIDEO, which was well-produced but not very interesting overall. I wish they had included the amazing remixes of PARTY DAY by DAVID CARETTA and AKUFEN from the 12" on this CD - oh well. Nex time? Still, I respect COSMO and wish him success in the States.
