“…an engaging blend of slinky Tropicalia, soulful Bacharachia, and enigmatic Euro-thriller themes.” –Andy Gill, The Independent (UK)
“Celestial Electric is a delightful, head-nodding, pop-psychedelic heat-haze of an album where grooves are sleazy, women are “ladies” and lovelorn guys just can’t figure this crazy old world out”- Emusic Album Review 4.5 Stars/ 5

“New year, new favourite record.”-Monocle Magazine Review UK
Their good reps precede them (but just in case: habitual five-star solosits and soul-pop aficionados with shelf-bending vinyl collections). So how will they fare together? Like that vinyl, this is a thing of taste, depth, grooviness and something that feels like its’s been around forever that mixes soundtrack leitmotifs, Eastern psychedelia, heart and soul. New year, new favourite record.
“sonic innovation with a plethora of funky grooves and drum lines- no loops in earshot” -Clash Magazine
