referencing Or, CD, Album, EMN 7049-2

Cheeky Swiss electro from everyone's favorite electroclash babe, Miss Kittin, and her collaborator, Golden Boy. OR is appropriately peppy, starting from the futuristic automobile "Autopilot," and even into the icier tones of "It's Good For You to Meet People" or the cute stop-start reggae off-beat of "Campari Soda." The self-referential lyrics on "1234" is clever, but the instrumental tracks seem to lack that spark that Miss Kittin brings. Just listen to the creepy serial killer lyrics of "Rippin Kittin" or the toothache-and-giggle-inducing "After 8," and you'll hear the difference. The instrumental "Kopfstand," in particular, seems to go on too long. The additional mix of "Rippin Kittin" makes what's disturbing danceable. Which is disturbing in itself.
