New
Desert Planet album is getting brilliant reviews in Germany DE:BUG
Bob 5/5 ,Germany
"Großartig! "Brilliant!"" Musikansich.de
Hendrik Stahl 18/20 points (Germany)
"Fortunately this is no artsy nanoloop-nuisance but highly
dancefloor-oriented space-electronica. Mission completed![…]"
Ox-Magazine, Germany, # 06-07/2005
(8/10 points)
"An intelligent, energizing, funny, ironical and most dancable album!"
Nordische-musik.de Germany
"In fact their fourth album goes far beyond sheer SID-chip-purism and
instead uses those quirks and bleeps only as ornaments for great
instrumental-pop with gorgeous titles like "Return Of The Ninja Droids"
[…]"
SPEX, Germany, # 06/2005
"[…] Yes, Desert Planet are taking you back to the cubic gameworlds of
a long forgotten time […] partially sweetest disco-trash, partially
danceable electronica and partially pure reminiscence. […]"
Onetake.de (4/5 Points), 06/2005
" 80's lads, nostalgia minded, friends of Finnish Sauna and
differently-thinking dance mice can access here."
DJ @ Soundbase-online.com ( 9/12)
" Great Elektro-Spacepunk-hymns, which move somewhere between Aavikko,
Daft Punk and Kraftwerk" Elektrolurch Hans Korte ( 29. April
2005 )
