DinoSau A little crime Propeller Recordings

Mon, 27 Aug 2007 00:00:00 -0700

Norwegian trio Dinosau seem to be proving a point when it comes to pop. Some electro bands are be content to be weird and mysterious, while Dinosau keeps up with the rest of them, yet still keep the weird interesting and the mysterious innovative. "A little crime" wanders a maze of quirky, pleasant euro-lounge pop, some 50's doo-wop and jazz, yet still manages a standard all their own. Here we have eleven songs that would suit your next garden cocktail party quite nicely. Tracks like "Supermann" and "It's like a bubble" show us what can still be done with synths and a little adventurous experimentation.
