Childsplay レコード& CD

Review: The Childsplay label - with its amusing KIDS catalogue number system - is back with more grown-up electro goodness here. This one from Tom Place has a superb Blade Runner-inspired bit of artwork as well as four high-impact bangers. 'Heartbreaker' is awash with gurgling synths and bubbling bass as tough electro drums get to work. 'Buttercup' then ducks and dives with twisted acid and flailing hits bringing a loose but compelling rhythm while 'Miniskirt' then plays with sleazy vocal samples and scruffy metal surfaces over hard techno drums. It's quite the party starter.
