Product details

Acid bloops, big beat breaks, deep house vocals, ambient pads, electro snares, 80's synthesiser samples and Daft Punk funk.
The title track fizzes with luscious, arcade game immitation sounds, which are muted and finely balanced by the nonchalant and laidback vocals, which are reminicent of Beth Orton (on her collaboration with The Chemical Brothers).
"Nothing is wrong" growls on a bed of no frills 4/4 beats and the sassy vocals make this, and "Mindset to cycle" comparable to Playgroup, in a 80's kitch kind of way.
Amongst the electro experimentaion is "Hayling". As a big fan of chill out I would have to name this the highlight track. Maybe because of its contrast to the rest of the album, and it's freshness. The sounds are more natural and flowing, the vocals are lush and deep. It contradicts most of what has been heard so far and would not be out of place on a Fridge or Orbital album.
"North Pole Transmission" has a strong Chemical brothers vibe. The private psychedelic reel anyone?
Come to think of it, there aren't really many original ideas here. The album chops and changes, but follows formula created by others before them. It still sounds fantastic, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it groundbreaking.
It's a welcome addition to albums by the artists I have named above, and in places, it out-does them.
I find my self putting it on when i'm just chilling or working, and also when i'm off out on the razz, it realy gets me in the mood because of its funkyness and GO!
I bought machines say yes after hearing a few tracks on the radio (pete tong and seb fontaine, radio 1) namely the track machines say yes because it stook in my head whn i heard it and the single wasn't out at the time. I decided to buy the album and now i cant stop playing it, its great.
if your in to the whole progressive house and electric funk style dance scene then this album is definately for you, and even if your not then i'd still defiantely reckomend that this is cd you need in your collection.
I love the versitillity FC uses, from glitterball, a faster and more energetic track with a beast of a baseline and cool sounding FX, to the mellow and relaxing hayling, which just sends a chill down your spine when you hear the simple but tingling melody, and the totaly harmonic vocals.
Its an album that grows on you every time you liten to it, i definateley reckomend you buy it.
