and another...

this one was only written a few days ago, but it's about a release from quite a long time ago, the free netlabel EP version of morpheme that the electrolyt label (andreas of lipstick/sunstroke militia fame) put out a while after the full album was originally released...

"behind Sydney, Australia-based Telafonica are Adrian Elmer, David Hughes, and Marcella Hughes. (Adrian Elmer, for instance, is at the moment more known as a prolific reviewer at Cyclic Defrost, one of the coolest webzines all around the world). However, 6 years ago Telafonica functioned as a combo mixing up bouncy yet mesmerizing electro beats with slowly evolving indie scaffolds which are infiltrated with somewhat sound, hirsuit layers. After many laps on it you can admit all these 5 tracks are on the ball. A classic (whose longer version is available at Bandcamp)."

Nice. Are you suggesting by following up the last review with this one that we should return to music sans toys? I don't know if I can play in a toy-less Telafonica. : )

put it in context, bec. that's the first review for an album originally released in 2005. balance that with all the nice reviews with toys. not to mention that, at the end of every gig, who is the only person anyone from the audience wants to talk to and what do they want to talk about?!
