City of Glass

I wouldn’t try to guess the number of bands who send me material which sits within this genre, most of it is little more than rehashed pseudo pop. City Of Glass manage to step above the fray with clean sounding material, which has a plethora of levels.

Bouncing razor-blade clean production is melded with warm synth. There is a distinct retrospective to the New Romantic UK beats of the early ’80s. It has a freshness and zing which can’t help but cause a hip to twitch.

These are a duo of highly competent creators, who have chosen to follow their hearts in to the mush of synthetic pop and come up smelling of roses, to my jaded lug-holes that is no mean feat.

Emotional out-bursts meet with an up-tempo vibrancy, driving the music to the brain and it works superbly. I take my hat off to Michael and David, who have successfully transformed a sloughed email reader to an enthusiast simply with some first class composition.
