Face the facts: has there been any release on the Electro scene
in recent years that really brought innovation and a breath of
fresh air to the scene? Most of the so-called "modern" acts
kept recycling concepts that are known to be successful while
the grey eminences either stayed straight in line with the sound
they were renowned for or ventured into territories that were so
far away from their roots that their fans were unwilling to
follow.
Auto-Auto are two talented young guys from Sweden who have set
out to do things a little differently. Left cold by current
trends and removed from all conventional approaches, they are
creating their very own vision of electronic pop music that is
refreshingly easy-going, highly club-compatible and pretty darn
cool. Where others refrain from breaching certain barriers,
Johan Hellqvist and Erik Frankel are plunging in head-first and
are not afraid of incorporating rapped passages, analog
minimalism and heart-warmingly nonsensical samples into their
sound. They are masters of creating melodies that are catchy as
hell without ever drifting into banality. In short: Auto-Auto
are making Electro a one-of-a-kind experience, combining the
lust for experimentation with an earnest approach to an
addictive mixture. The smashing, hellishly dynamic sound was
created by John Fryer (Depeche Mode, NIN.)
All you electro-junkies, hardliners, diehards and dance
aficionados, forget everything about the old scene norms and
give this album a listen! Auto-Auto are rapidly expanding the
sonic spectrum of the Out Of Line universe and are showing a
brightly lit path into the future!
