THE REVIEW
For the series... "I know them all!"
This is an album I dare anyone to know. I remember hearing the single on the radio, and not knowing who the heck was behind that brilliant track, I found myself humming it in front of a record store clerk. "Wow, that's Stakka Bo," the super expert replied. "Stakka who?". In short, the classic blind purchase.
And I found on the CD a pretty remarkable disc, by this unknown Swede (at least to me), who knew how to mix electronics of all kinds: hip hop, D&Bass, finely crafted lounge.
A thoroughly enjoyable album from start to finish, a true discovery. Plentiful keyboards played with finesse, rhythms and drum loops chosen with mastery. And this "blondie" who, by the way, doesn't even sing badly.
I recommend MP3 "downloaders" to find tracks like "Drip Drop", "Terrorist" (a beautiful ballad with an incredibly effective piano), "Great Blondino" ...From cold Sweden, a collection of electronically "warm" tracks...
