Musik For Abstract Citizens - BuzzUniverse
author: Jesse Jarnow
BuzzUniverse occupy a psychedelic world rooted somewhere after the synthesizer-brightened heyday of bands like Pink Floyd and the Ozric Tentacles, but before the onset of full-force laptop electronica like Aphex Twin and The Chemical Brothers. If they occasionally delve into the cheesy (some of the more funk-driven arrangements, such as the opening "With the Wind"), they frequently range into the genuinely pretty (the warm organ drone of "Orbital"). More importantly than a specific accounting of what's good and bad on the album, BuzzUniverse absolutely succeed at pulling out surprising tricks across the album's 40 minutes. "Rhumba" starts as a fairly bland groove, before turning quickly into cosmically informed interpretation of its title. They are a creatively resourceful band, which will come in handy as they refine their ideas more.
