The Swedish Balearics remix their favorites.
-
We Say...
Swedish duo Studio follow up their Yearbook 1 album in typically understated, low-concept fashion — with another album of remixes. The standard is uniformly high — they enhance, rather than obscure the subjects of their mix-ology with a cleverly paradoxical mixture of Balearic golden sunset warmth and synthetic Techno sheen. Many of the remixees are fellow Swedes, such as Love Is All, to whose winsome “Turn The Radio Off” they add both pop glitter and sleek sophistication.
When dealing with indie-pop, they inject vital flavor and color to a genre that has suffered progressive anemia these past few years — though in the case of Rubies, whose shuffling, lilting “Room Without a Key” they version, a metamorphosis is hardly required. For deep Techno denizen Brennan Green, they pay tribute with a mix of woodpecker sequencers and paradisal slide guitars. However, the real catch here, and probably the album highlight, is their take on Kylie's “2 Hearts,” which has won the ardent admiration of Ms. Minogue herself. It's a fireworks display of Flamenco curlicues, tangential, rotorblading sequencers and Balearic beats, in which Kylie's cut-up and discorporated vocals luxuriate.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
