Outer Limits Recordings - $20 Bill release date 21/2/2011


$20 Bill has captured the feel of kitsch underground 70's disco and refuses to let it go.

The production sounds like it was done on two cassette decks rigged together to form a rudimentary home studio. This provides charm and frustration in equal measure. I'm sure it's done intentionally to give the warmth of A.M. radio or vinyl, but it's a tad overdone. If the effect was toned down just a little it would be a fantastic track.

Having said that, it is clever stuff, deserves a listen and I woke up humming it one morning so it must be catchy.
