shahar@isratrance Posted January 24, 2002 Author Share Posted January 24, 2002 Possible Apple - Botanical Zoo Artist: Possible Apple Title: Botanical Zoo Label: Cool Front Date: 2001 Track listing: 01. 05'13" Helsinki - Oulu - Akaslompolo 02. 08'18" Porstva 03. 10'54" Bullets And Arrows 04. 05'53" Keep The Signalside Clean 05. 04'54" Protecting the Surface 06. 05'53" Barry White 07. 06'02" Daddy 08. 04'41" (Let Me Be) All You Need Review: Funky Finland hits again! Work on your afros, put on those big pink sunglasses, get them tight glittering pants out and don't forget the platform shoes!!! Possible Apple- Jasse Kesti- delivers a delicious, funny, sexy, innovative and totally funky round piece of plastic, and you get an extra hole in the middle as well! We're dealing here with a highly talented musician surfing through musical styles, showing a lot of ability using a blend of electronic music and live instruments with a lot of feel, lots of old-fashion-psycedelica, endless innovation, and a sick sense of humor. It all starts in Helsinki, slow and groovy, with a jazzy flavor and a little surprise. Then we get Porstva (T2)- as funky as it gets, we're talking dark smoky underground pub music for a cold winter, with amazing bass guitar and naughty drumming sequences. I can just see that ancient black guy sitting in the corner in front of a glass of whiskey, wearing sunglasses, nodding his head and tapping his foot on the floor. Bullets & Arrows (T3) is a trip back in time to the 70's detective shows- the mustached cops, slick evil dudes, big American cars' street chases, abandoned factory shootouts, it's all there- close your eyes and have a laugh. I won't describe the whole screenplay- I'll leave you to experience the full 11 min. adventure. Keep the Signalside Clean (T4) is a more electronic and more psychedelic and spacey atmospheric tune. Follows Protecting the Surface (T5), naughty and intensive with cool live drumming. Barry White (T6) hits next- mmmm? Anything I'll say will ruin the experience, let's just say that you're gonna have a laugh, and a big one- what a crazy muttafucka! Daddy (T7) appeared on Surreal Audio's Open, and gave me the first taste of the poisoned Possible Apple, a sexy funky piece of music that will make Austin Powers wet his pants (and I'm not talking about drinking too much beer baby)!!! Need I say more? Well, I'll just mention these old Deep Purple keyboards- I'm in love with this one!!! The last track is a relaxed song for all ears, beautiful soothing singing to take you out of this funky psychedelic trap. Oh, and if you can stand long silences, there's a little surprise. Bottom Line: A pure joy for evolved funky electronic minds. A MUST!!! Favorites: 1, 2(!), 3(!), 5, 6(!!), 7(!), 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest info[at]coolfront[dot]net Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 Global distribution negotiations are still in progress for Cool Front and we dont have our own e-commerce working at the moment either, so i would suggest to use Stupido for ordering because they are very reliable...
