With sublime abandon, San Francisco's
David Mahr plunges headfirst into
Erasure territory -- bouncy grooves, propulsive drum machine rhythms, pulsing synth bass and assured yet jaundiced vocals.
Happy and soulful, each Eurodance track is perfectly crafted dance-floor ecstasy. In fact, the music is so great and utilitarian that you might overlook the lyrics. But don't! "Solitude" matter-of-factly deals with man-man love and abandonment (and will be included on the upcoming and very out Trip Record label's compilation CD release Sibilance). ~ Will Grega
