A quick yes ;) Even though it's that despised trip hop with vocals, for
me it just works very nicely. Muted almost-jungle rhythms and nice use
of samples (quite a bit of James Bond type music) and good pop tunes.
The vocals are completely inoffensive, reminds me most of Saint Etienne,
although probably not as good as that group's So Tough album.
Has a really lovely instrumental last track, with Satie-like piano
sounds and orchestral samples, and a changing odd time signature (don't
remember off-hand whether it's mostly 5/4 or 7/8...)
And what's more, it's the CD the sound guy was playing before the Mu-ziq
gig at the Embassy Rooms when I was in London ;) [Er... so it must be
good? Well...]
