Robot Love

Tags: , , , ,

Here’s an older review by fistula_spume from MOG, which I forgot to publish. I was going to keep on writing a few more jazz/nujazz/beat stuff but I don’t have the time now, so enjoy this offtopic obscure synth gem…

I have played this album over and over again for a couple of weeks now. I can’t stop listening to it. It’s corny but it’s so honest. I can’t quite describe it. Victor Lams started this album in March of 2000. He recorded a song a week. From what I can tell he uses his computer and some synths. The music is so goofy and harmless. He’s a guy who really knows where his towel is. He has a ton of free music on the internet. You can find links on his website. I don’t like what I’ve heard as much as his love ode to robots. I found this album to be fun and refreshing. Yes it’s dorky and goobery but it’s got guts. It reminds me of listening to Dr. Demento as a child. The album isn’t trying to be a complete novelty album, though. You can tell Victor put a lot of his heart in it. I love that the album has an intermission. It works with the flow. You need an intermission with an album with 23 tracks. It’s an album where I didn’t find myself skipping through tracks. I just kept playing it over an over again. It’s cheeseball but Victor has got soul. White nerdy soul, but he’s got it. Check out some free tracks from this album on his site also.
