Anyone wanting to get a fix of sunshine indie pop should go to their local dealer and see if this is available. A Polish band who seem incredibly at home singing in English, there is no trace here of their ethnic origin. Instead we get a bit of bossa nova and some Belle and Sebastian all leavened with a pinch of Stereolab.
Opening with "Why Don't We" one is immediately reminded of Stereolab with bright guitar lines and retro (but futuristic) keyboards wheezing behind the attractive hushed male/female vocals. While other songs pursue this "electronica" direction others have a more whimsical, eighties pastoral feel very much in the vein of those old Cherry Red label recordings. Singers Tomasz Garstkowiak and Magda Szkudlarek shine both individually and in harmony. Simple melodies adorn the twelve songs which can all be summed up in the one word - "pretty." The title song is a beautiful piece which doesn't last long enough. The rippling guitars of "About the Past" and the hushed vocals of "Honey Are We Getting Older" lift these songs above the ordinary.
All in all an excellent little album.
