side A 1-Walkie Talkie 2-Summertime ------ side B 1-Windowshopping in the Mirror 2-Motorbike (Vox by Man Parrish) --- release notes: "I like the Tampopo Remix a lot - it's crazy! It has a dirty bass line like buzzz, buzzz. It'll go really good with the Poney Ep by Vitalic. With that kick and that bass line - where you've got the analog synths where they don't sound acid-y, but the frequency and the resonance are really sharp - those really work good on the dancefloor". from: "ShopTalk" review by FELIX DA HOUSECAT January 2003 issue of Remix's ShopTalk centerfold. ---- Straight outa New York comes Throb Disk, giving it some electroclash business with 4 tracks of up for it electro pop destined for chic dancefloors everywhere. Gigolo immediately comes to mind, evoking the spirit of hedonism and glam with a smattering of the obligatory cheese,brash melodies with rough dirty synth basslines and vocals supplied by the legend that is Man Parrish! Check the pretty fearsome Motorbike with a 4/4 rhythm underlying the rough electronix, a party piece with a fierce arpeggiated synth flashing away while the classic 808 drums pound the beat out. from: Bi-Wire Records UK - --- "Window Shopping in the Mirror' is not just a song about fashion. It's also FROM fashion, OF fashion, and IN fashion. Its melody, its crisp snare, flat kick, and dry, squirty 303 bass are irresistable in their robo-Italo perfection. But 'Lectronix revel in the shallow glamour of disposability, even down to their name (a new and, one assumes, temporary moniker for the duo formerly known as Hong Kong Counterfeit). They embrace a yesterday that only cared about today. And today, especially on the runway or in the photo shoot, they sound perfect. from: Repellent Magazine
