Music reviews of I Am a Dalek

Music Review: A freakin' great Album!
Rating: 5 Stars

'Wet & Hard' is the name he's given to the refreshing and controversial eastern european clubsound, which has been created as a lifeboat for young artists wishing to escape the sinking of the techno-trance-titanic.
The name not only implies a unique identity, but it also reflects the exciting sound and the philosophy, as well as containing that special spicy ingredient, for which the east has become notoriously famous.

'I am a dalek' starts with a mystical and alluring introducion and then slowly unfolds to reveal Corvin and his collaborators. By the time the first break comes, you are already 20 mins into the album! It's a very very groovy album oozing with sexual fantasy, with punchy basslines and reminiscent riffs, which could span generations and i think anyone who has ever liked 70's pink floyd, would probably appreciate the inventiveness of this album too.

This great album bridges east and west. It has collaborations with New Order's vocalist Bernard Sumner and Inspiral Carpets bassist Martyn Walsh, as well as introducing his Flesh label colleagues, Jan Kessler, Eiven Major, Mr Sam and Fidelity Kastrow who's performs the poignant and powerful MTW in german, while Corvin literally whips it up.

I would highly recommend this album to anyone looking for an artist with imagination and creativity. It's definitely an album to dance or drive (your parents crazy) to and a milestone to this essential sound emerging from the east of Europe.
If this is a presentation of things to cum, then the future will be very 'Wet&Hard'. Congratulations Corvin on a freakin' magnificent piece of work.
