Description: PROPELLERHEADS-DECKSANDRUMSANDROCKANDROLL-CD-(Electronic) Since the Chemical Brothers explosion, new big-beat acts from the U.K. aregreeted with skepticism, but Propellerheads are no copycats. Alex Gifford andWill White did the usual groundwork by releasing singles and EPs before givingup a full album. The groovy single "History Repeating," featuring '60s cabaretvocalist Shirley Bassey, plays slightly into the lounge revival of the late '90sbut with a James Bond-esque style that grabs attention similar to Portishead's"Sour Times." The recurring spy film theme makes this a perfect soundtrack forAustin Powers's first rave--"On Her Majesty's Secret Service" is actually a Bondremake. Propellerheads also slip in full-on "rock" jams ("Bang On!") and slickurban cut-ups reminiscent of De La Soul, who appear on "360° (Oh Yeah?)."Shifting tempos from laidback to lightning-fast with exceptional ease,Decksandrumsandrockandroll is a solid collection of funky, jazzy, hip-hop-influenced dance music that has earned its mainstream acceptance by deliveringthe goods. --Liisa Ladouceur Label: DreamWorks Records – DRMSD-50031Format: CD, AlbumCountry: CanadaReleased: 1998Genre: ElectronicStyle: Big Beat PLEASE NOTE MARK ON SPINE,DOES NOT AFFECT BOOKLET OR TRAY CARD TRACKLIST:1 Take California2 Velvet Pants3 Better?4 360 Degrees (Oh Yeah?)5 History Repeating6 Winning Style7 Bang On!8 A Number Of Microphones9 On Her Majesty's Secret Service10 Bigger?11 Cominagetcha12 Spybreak!13 You Want It Back
