4.0 out of 5 stars Adorable, 13 Jun 2006
By J. W. Bassett (Kent, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Toy are UK composer, Alisdair Stirling, and Jorgen Traeen, a producer from Norway. As a duo, their playful tunes mix kids TV and Japanese-style electronica with a touch of Scadanavian electro weirdness.

Opener, Grass Beatbox, will burrow itself inside your skull and stay there for months. It's saccharine sweet melody is irritating and gloriously infectious in equal measure. Later, Valley Cars offers a baseline that sounds like it's being powered by Woody Woodpecker's beak.

Swingswung is a subliminal delight with only what sounds like a cow's "moo" disturbing the peace, while Golden Fish In Pool is incidental elevator music infused with beats, grooves and a stifled trombone, the result of which is the most catchy pop number on the album.

Toy is the mish-mash of a thousand kids' cartoon characters running riot, which might sound as annoying as Crazy Frog on paper, but it's actually incredibly adorable and very charming.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nintendo symphonies, 5 Jul 2006
By John Tree "Finding the good stuff" (Poulton-le-Fylde, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Toy are a Scandinavian/ British collaboration, and although you can detect some of the sensibilities of Royksopp in there, the sound is unique. This delightfully childlike slice of electronica would not be out of place in a Nintendo game, and is what I imagine Super Mario might listen to...if he had a day off from bouncing off virtual platforms. It may have the sonic qualities of a cartoon in primary colours, sunny, and filled with innocent humour, but the music is deceptively complex with real progressions and variation which reward repeated listening. Recommended... although your friends may look at you slightly askew if you hit them with it at an after party. Surprisingly satisfying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 27 Feb 2006
Imagine that the last security guard has left the biggest toy shop in the world at the close of the day. As the lights get turned off and the doors are locked, one by one the toys come alive to do what they were made to do. The sounds on this album are exquisite, elaborate, intricate and beautiful. This really is a treat for the ears. We are all likely to relate to it from the angle of our childhood, but also from a good appetite for really catchy music. A very stylish peice of work.
