(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is the YMO album when they are at their electro tounge in cheek best. It kicks off with a kind of prelude that reminds me of playing my computer as a kid (computer game) it then leads in to the brilliant and most appropriate of covers; Martin Denny's Fire Cracker(an Eastern take on a song by a westerner about the east using a western genre!!!hmmm). 'Simoon' and 'cosmic surfin'are two of my favourite YMO tracks, when I hear them I imagine robots cutting the rug at their local ballroom . After another computer has loaded up we're into the killer bassline of 'tong poo'-another classic. The whole album is superb and was likened to kraftwerk for obvious reasons. That is not to say that if you like kraftwerk you'll like this album, YMO tend to have more humour, warmth, and play around with electronics more. Also check 'BGM' 'technodelic' 'solid state survivor'"
