    This French-Swiss duo pumps out retro-'80s-style disco beats and silly lyrics, creating a fun, goofy, ironic vibe that is sure to be a hit in Europe and perhaps in America.
  2. Rolling Stone

    Synth techno filtered through the twenty years of electronic dance music that have unspooled since 1982. [11 Apr 2002, p.132]

    Take a Casio keyboard or any other early '80s dance machine, wheel it out and blow the dust off and you would most likely be able to produce an album at least as enjoyable as this one.
