Album Description

The new DJ-Kicks album by The Glimmers, Mo Becha and David Fouquaert, once known as The Glimmer Twins, is a dizzying blend of disco, punk, funk, electro, & house. In their skilled and dextrous hands, disco no longer sucks and acid house's unparalled energy has been revitalised. Those with the inside skinny have long known this: for the last five years The Glimmers have been dance music's best kept secret, and, as such, its saviours in waiting.

Disco is the main axis upon which these 18 tracks swing, but this is not the disco from Saturday Night Fever lore. In Hamilton Bohannon's 1979 classic, "The Groove Machine"/ "The Boogie Train" (exclusively re-edited by the Idjut Boys for this album), is a disco wholly suited to New York's famed Paradise Garage. On Rub `N Tug's magical (again exclusive) re-edit of Chicago's "I'm A Man", blues-y rock is re-born as hypnotic disco. Conversely, the first three tracks Bis's "Shack Up," Peaches "Lovertits," and Big Two Hundred's "Approach & Pass With Contact" are examples of the nefarious new wave disco.

Far from being the faceless and featureless linear DJ mixes of old, The Glimmers have invested their DJ-Kicks debut with a musical schizophrenia that would be certifiable if it weren't so goddamn funky. It's mixed up, but it's cohesive: it has its eyes on the future and it's heart in the past. It brings to mind the best works of Andy Weatherall, Derrick Carter and Trevor Jackson, yet has a unique charm that is all its very own. It is without doubt the best advert for freaky dancing in 2005.

Customer Reviews:

The Glimmers!.......2006-06-01

Raw, funky and hypnotic, this mix by the Glimmers features a healthy dose of the venerated genre of italo-disco (in the form of tracks by Lindstrom & Prins Thomas, and remixes by Idjut Boys and Magnetophone), as well as out-and-out house. One of my favorite moments on this mix is when the Out Hud remix of "Kel's Vintage Thought" stops, and the dirty bass of Chicago's "I'm A Man" appears, to ride out its hypnotic groove for almost 8 minutes. If your heart can keep up to the steady pulse and manic pace of this album, you are indeed made of stern stuff.

Product Description

Rachmaninoff, John Coltrane and Led Zeppelin never got a chance to collaborate. Luckily for us, there is Back to Zero. Back to Zero is a rare treat in the world of underground music. Listening to it is a bit like kicking off your shoes and relaxing with a good book. With over an hour of beautifully-mastered trip hop and acid jazz cuts in styles ranging from haunting piano nocturnes to operatic jazz epics to electro-surfer rock, you're not going to find another album like it this year.

Customer Reviews:

You will not find a more interesting record.......2006-02-05

This is true genius. When I first purchased back to zero, upon my first listen I was in awe, in a stupor. I thought "Damn, this is just the kind of music I've been waiting to hear." Back to zero is exponentially more imaginative and interesting than any album you're likely to hear for a long long time. Front to back, it's flawless - its the soundtrack to a wandering mind. Unpredictable - this record is by far the most modern thing you're likely to hear. Lightyears ahead of it's time musically - Tomfoolios leading the charge while the rest of us are desperately trying to catch up to where he's at. I'm not exagerating when I say I must've listened to sleepwalker 30 times in a row. I just couldn't stop listening.

Musical Artwork.......2005-11-14

Had the opportunity to listen to all the tracks on this cd and Tomfoolio does a brilliant job blending different genres of music to make this eclectic masterpiece.

This CD is incredible.......2005-11-10

I haven't broken the news to my boyfriend yet that there's a new love in my life. I've rewritten the letter a few times now trying to get the words to come out right. The latest draft goes a bit like this: "Love, I don't know how to tell you this...there's someone else. His name is Tomfoolio."

I truly haven't been this impressed with an album since Supermodified, which is appropriate, because I can't think of anyone short of Amon Tobin who I've heard do a better job of fitting together samples from assorted genres and making them work as though they were meant to be. Take a track like "Gold Coast Yuppies vs. the Third World," for instance. IDM-style beatboxing morphs into jazz opera, Dr. Octagon-like trip hop, and finally guitar-picking folk song with turntablism thrown in for good measure.

And it works--it just works. That's what's so ace about it. Many of the songs on the album are simply beautiful (notably Petals on a Wet Black Bough and the title track) and astoundingly, all of them are good. There honestly just aren't any bad songs on this CD at all.

I'm already singing the praises of Tomfoolio to everyone in earshot--now I just have to figure out how to break the news to my boyfriend.

Soulful and Real.......2003-08-22

Brilliant blending of Kropf's vocal talent with keyboard and backup vocals and instruments creates a feel that paints a vivid picture of her hometown of Pittsburgh and her experiences in life that resonate in your core.

Stunning songs.......2002-06-10

I listen to this album almost every day. I wish there were audio links to the songs so others could get an idea of to them. Heather Kropf's style is influenced by all kinds of musicians: Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, Sade, for example. She is one of those few musicians who writes well AND sounds good. The song "Cholera" is inspired by Gabriel Garcia Marquez's LOVE IN THE TIME OF CHOLERA. Kropf sings, "Like vines leading to angels/ If they take you in/ If they let you stay/ Ask no questions/ & look for no answers/ Vines leading to angels/ Will she take you in/ Will she let you stay?" (By the way, there's good news for all Kropf fans: she's coming out with a new album soon!)

Beautiful Music.......2002-01-24

I've never tired of listening to this beautiful cd. I recommend it to everyone who ever enjoyed a rainy day.
