Sputnik - Favorite Songs Of The Soviet Cosmonauts '1998 / space retro disco, electro, lounge

Цитата о "Спутнике" с Amazon.com: This disc is a real find! Sputnik could and should easily be huge on the inde/cult lounge-pop/tech. scene. The liners describe Russians in Amsterdam creating a contemporary soundtrack for Tarkovsky's 1972 film Solaris, saying that if this past vision of the future had come to pass, then perhaps Sputnik would be playing on the hippest of lounge-bars orbiting one of Jupiter's moons. Its hard to describe their sound except for hinting at its borders through comparissons. Sputnik, musically, are the long-lost Russian cousins to euro-groups like Air, Mouse on Mars, & Scala, but with a touch of a more classic-vibe like Tones on Tail. Sputnik's cool trip-hop female vocals, sung entirely in russian, are carefully blended with an early Mute-records-type synth-sound, heard best on E=mc2. I could see Sputnik on Asphodel records alongside Tipsy or We, or Stereolab's DuophonicHi-Fi label. They've tapped into a kind of avant-retro jazz-funk/disco that is like entering hyper-space in StarWars/Trek, that moment where speeding up furiously streaks the stars into a contemplative and relaxing blur, a moment for sipping a smooth coctail just before the leap into the unknown. Exactly the thing to turn the y2k-oz mumbo-jumbo back into the 'turn-of-the-mille(nium)' 2001 space-station party it should be.
