A more satisfying album than their previous Sony effort,
Electro Glide in Blue sees
Apollo 440 moving closer to straight-ahead techno and away from commercial pop, a good move considering the electronic atmosphere of the times. Whether it's the Sony Playstation video-game track "Rapid Racer" or an incredibly well-done duet with former
Associates vocalist
Billy Mackenzie on "Pain in Any Language,"
Apollo 440 proves they're no strangers to the dancefloor. ~ John Bush
