Sunmachine is an interesting mix; interesting because it's about equal parts appealing and forgettable. "Sunchyme," which opens and closes the CD, sounds rather like something you'd hear in a dance club, only more cheerful, and "Carnaval de Paris" contains some odd juxtapositions (did I hear bagpipes in there?). The oddly titled "Be My Friend" has some vaguely Middle Eastern touches, and "Malaway" is based around something that may or may not be a didjeridu. However, if one of your criteria for music is that you remember it after the CD's stopped playing, you'll probably want to give Sunmachine a miss. While a pleasant listen, not much of it is memorable. --Genevieve Williams

...And that's coming from a guy who doesnt like Dance &Techno!!.......2007-03-06
The album is absolutly awesome. When someone told me about these guys the first thing I said was, "No thanks, I dont listen to dance music," but she said, "No no it's not your typical kind of Dance music." So I took a chance and got it and I'm glad I did. This CD is almost euphoric. "Sunchyme" is such a awesome song that I decided to name my cat after it. (crazy I know) The song just keeps building and building for three minutes until you get to the whole gist of it. "Malaway" trips me out, and "Peaches" almost sounds like an electronic mix from the 80's. The accoustic version of "Voices" is absolutly beautiful and gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it. That song was also featured in 2000 movie "The Beach." which made the movie in my opinion, and I didnt even know who Dario G was at the time. This CD is just great. You don't want to dance to it, you want to lay back and daydream to it. At least thats what I feel like doing to "End of the Beginning." this CD is absolutly perfect for a rainy day. You may find the music a little repetitious, but that is common considering the genre. For those who DON"T like Dance and Techno, at least give this CD a try! This CD is trully one of the best CD's I've ever owned, yet amazingly most people in the US have never heard of it. I sure didn't.
Not your typical Dance Album.......2006-09-29
Sunchyme- A track that certainly lives up to its name while setting the pace for the entire album. A bright house gem built around a sample from The Dream Academy's "Life in A Northern Town"
Carnival De Paris- Quite perhaps the most unusual House song ever produced. Whoever heard of using bagpipes in a dance song? An uplifting charmer one might use to cover an international competition (oh wait it was).
Sunmachine- This song takes a stab at making David Bowie's "Memory of a Free Festival" from Space Oddity a bit more..um memorable and succeeds. Bowie liked the song so much he gave the band the original demo of the song to sample. Add to that a piano, organ and a flute(played by Bowie's producer no less) and you have a track that's not only memoorable but 50 times better than the original Bowie record.
Voices- Possibly the only redeeming quality about the Leonardo DiCaprio film The Beach. A beautiful voice over an even more beautiful melody.
Be My Friend- Filler but beautiful vocals.
Peaches- Enigma-esque downtempo melody combined with a tech-house rythem.
Malaway- Tech house with a tribal chant. Amusing but not memorable.
Revolution- A protest House song. Hmmm
Voices- A stipped down version of the track.
End of the Beginning- The album comes to a close with an early version of Sunmachine. The David Bowie album version of the sample being played over an ambient Sunchyme. A bit long but a nice way to end things.
Overall, this album proves that the boys of Dario G are have an eve for producing, but not every song is memorable.
