TelepopmusikAngel Milk Catalogue/Capitol/EMI Along with Air and Les Rhythm Digitales, Telepopmusik is one of the most notable and distinctive French electronic acts. Best known for the track Breathe (from their debut 2001 album 'Genetic World') which has been featured in numerous TV commercials and other promotional material, the different musical backgrounds of Stephan Haeri, Christophe Hatier and Fabrice Dumont meld together to create their unique take on abstract ambient electronica. Their sophomore release, 'Angel Milk', continues where 'Genetic World' left off. It's a collection of cool, beautiful sounds, with a great balance of synthesised and real instruments creating a commercial-friendly vibe without the artificial flavouring. Angela McCluskey, Deborah Anderson and Mau share the vocal duties throughout the album and they each give the album that little extra something. The sultry rasp of McCluskey (Don't Look Back and Love's Almighty), the delicate tones of Anderson (Close and Stop Running Away) and the edge of Mau (Hollywood On My Toothpaste and Last Train To Wherever) help create a sense of balance within the abstract and moody productions of the album. There are potential hits in this album that will almost certainly reach the same level as Breathe, while the balance of musical accessibility and intriguing sounds will not only attract new fans but also satisfy those already in the know.  |
