UMO 2 Caipirinha Music EXPERIMENTAL/ELECTRO So who the hell are UMO you ask? Good question. According to the promo material, UMO are the "German techno super-group of Adel Dior (on Force Inc.) & Jammin Unit (Cem Oral, brother of Khan) of Air Liquide, also featuring Khan (Bizz OD, H.E.A.D.), Terrible (Berlin DJ), & Kerosene (Zulutronic, H.E.A.D.)". But who cares? What matters is that UMO are cranking out some seriously weird stuff. I hate to drop names and comparisons, but some of the songs have quite the Freeform feel. Couple that with some bass guitar appearances (what!?) and a touch of intentionally cheesy breakbeat, and you have one hell of a UMO album. Lots of fun. (audio/brian)
