How can we not love the robot? Our hearts are warmed that he is in love, and inspiring BertycoX to create some marvelous tunes for us again. I am elated! (I also adore the robot's valentine on the album cover) My favorite tune on this (way to short) album was "Retro Super Hero" because I just liked the melody - it suited my mood - it was more celebratory so I could celebrate with Robot. Your electronic tunes are always very good, BertycoX, and I always like them - they are light of heart and full of joy. The electronic music is clear as crystal and not muddy. The beat and tempo and melody are always perfect. This album is an absolute delight.

P.S. Are there pictures of Robot's love interest? Please share.

This is very inventive and original-sounding music. I especially liked the marimba on the first track.

A real album, although so far only one on Jamendo. From the first sounds the listener is wrapped into peculiar world of klang, that is amazing and unique. The album is well-balanced, and every piece has its place. Every sound and layer seems to be put carefully to into whole creation. I like the general mood, although was not really familiar with the genre: Electro-Funk, I'd rather expect something like Daft Punk, but I'm positively surprised. So, to the songs: La sixieme porte de Shaanaghar is perfect for the opening, and gives a hint, whta the whole album will be. Built over a single recuring riff, layered carefully and augmented with some SFX, resembles distantly of Tangerine Dream's Force Majeure. Le nettoyeur tries to tell a story of preparation to some shady business involving guns. Next in line, Blue star seems to be a recording, that whole album was built around. A nice, catchy song, arrnged in some minimalistic electro design and with voco'ed vocal. That lead us to some style and sound experiment in Respirre!, with intro using all known artifacts of Hindi music, gently progressing into wide and spacy New-Age arrange. This one is probably my favourite. From mystic and meditative depths of that song we step into a mind trance of quite another sort: Why takes prom Techno and Krautrock scene, what it has best, and transforms it in best way. All built over a single loop of TB-303 bass, ascending, descending and falling into whistling resonance throughout whole piece. Then comes the best one: Te new day, again gone to some areas of 'etno', this time of some nearer East. Muslim makam seems just natural over the nice elektro background. Some more use of vocoder just supplements whole thing. After that we come to a little reminder -- guest artist, Ilya Malyuev (Иля Малюев) made a great trance remix of Why. The comes my least favourite, La face cachee de la lune, which is also great, but a bit not in the general mood of this album. All works close with Les chevaliers de l'Aar, another piece augmented with radiophonic effects to tell us a story: of long journey on horseback in the rain probably... And leaves the listener in a pensive mood. Any flaws? in The blue star settings of vocoder machine might have been chosen more carefully, as final verse pronounces a bit like Always too gangsta', but is not enough to dismiss even half of point. Almost perfect -- but not novatory, not inventive. Nice but not original. Eight starts [++++++++--].
