Get your go-go boots!,
By Neyko (Buffalo, New york) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Self-Assembly (Audio CD)
Yeah baby! The Shirley Bassey influence continues on on this hip shaking cd. Lost loves that result in an "I"m gonna getcha back" lyrical attack and tribal drums that set your head a-bobbib'. The bass lines walk up and down the neck making this cd one for the mods!

Retro-futuristic wonderment!,
By Daly Mavorneen "Brimstone" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Self Assembly (Audio CD)
Noonday Underground is Daisy Martey's old band (the new chick singer for Morcheeba's last CD). This '60s Britpop-infused release is the first album from former Adventures In Stereo creator Simon Dine and Daisy. With Stax soul, Beatles, and Left Banke leanings left over from his former band, Dine gathered a live band to compile a catchy, groovy album.Bleating horns, lounge melodies, and garage rock tendencies make Noonday Underground reminiscent of French Ye Ye compilations, while spooky theremin electronics, sampled easy-listening chorus-filled tunes, and a female vocal draw comparisons to Broadcast. When the second song, "London" swings in, however, singer Daisy Martney's Janis Joplin-meets-Petula Clark vocals brush Noonday Underground's contemporaries aside. "Self Assembly" also features mellower numbers such as "Marvellous," which continue the retro-futuristic theme, sampling more choral Weather Report-like harmonies. Funky basslines and some hopping organ chords inject a little soul into the mix, making the album a varied trip through retro-futuristic wonderment. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful
