Comments:

This little ep is very short but also well-done. The electronic pop stylings are well-handled and the vocal is delightful. It recalls Morcheeba's chilled calm and maybe a bit of Björk's eccentricity in the vocal department. "Veo Veo" is supremely languid trip hop. "Abnormal Puzzle" is intriguingly odd, an avant pop experiment with a spoken word bit that fits and a nice backdrop. (stjarnell@yahoo.com)
