Reviews & Discussion
Competent and, at times, quite good downtempo from the German duo Mum. On their self-titled debut, they get the grooves going and don't fret much about the little stuff. "Zero Gravity" starts things funky and "Caught Like a Trout" keeps the Hammond organ kicking. "Body Surrender" falls headlong into future jazz territory; "Kronos" delves into drum 'n' bass; "Miss Defied" is a light, frothy spoken-word jazz confection. But, unfortunately, a good portion of the album is also unremarkable and passes by without so much as a dent. That's not to say that it's not good; it's just not memorable. Good for the background, but not for intense listening.
