Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following the departure of founding member Carlos Per贸n, the eccentric Swiss duo refined their bizarre, sample-heavy electronic sound into a more dancefloor-ready format. Dieter Meier's deep, theatrical vocal narrations glide over Boris Blank's wildly inventive synthesizer rhythms and tribal percussion loops. The album's hit single 'I Love You' firmly established their unique brand of cinematic, avant-garde pop.
