referencing Blues Project, CD, YM CD 010

Kid Loco's first release on CD, BLUES PROJECT, is much darker than A GRAND LOVE STORY, but I guess that's why they call it the blues. "Public Paranoiac Number One" has some minor piano chord backed with a steady, slightly off-kilter rhythm. A double bass and saxophone help round out the track and emphasize the dark jazz aspect. The interlude "Talkin' Bibles Vendors Blues" takes some samples from the great documentary SALESMAN. "Welcome in a World of Sex" gets a good rhythm going, and develops a little bluesy piano and sax line towards the middle, while "Kronos Goes Cosmos" has its darkness on display all the way through, with a jazz drum breakdown right in the middle followed with a classical string quartet. Overall, this EP isn't quite as focused as his later work would be, though it's worthwhile in itself.
