Brief n' tasty like a chalupa

"I'd give this higher marks but for the price... is a bit high for 10 minutes of music. But if you're using Amazon to buy your imports, you likely don't care!Here Chris Jeffs continues his series of short singles, this one being similar in tone to "Rewind," and "Living In the 1980's." The title track is pleasantly cheesy -- especially the mock 80's hip-hop lyrics -- and obscenely catchy. The other two tracks are basically throwaways with the same Robby-the-Robot-on-helium vocals. If you like Cylob's more playful tracks, you'll like this. If you're a new Rephlex convert and you're looking for something more meaty/complex (Aphex Twin or Squarepusher for ex), keep looking."

Funny and yet good at the same time

"The title track cracks me up everytime I hear it still. To hear somebody use a speak and spell to shoot out modern day lingo like it's nobody's business just tickles my funny bone for some reason. Quite expensive for such a short amount of music but a solid effort nonetheless from one of rephlex's most underrated artists."
