| Jazz tipped on its head, taking it to places other producers haven..t dreamt
about yet. (DJ 1999)
This is lightyears ahead of what anyone else is doing. (footloose magazine
1999)
No matter what musical style they choose to pursue, it always turns out to
be utterly masterly. (Wax 2000)
B.Friedman and U.Schmidt have released records whose obsessive detail, deep
thought about sampling, righteous swing and belief that an excess of cheese
leads to the palace of wisdom make almost everyone else look 20th century in
their music making. (The Wire 2000)
These days you can..t step into a lift without fighting your way through
musicians all trying to impress each other with their knowledge of jazz. Yet
when Uwe and Burnt get in, the others fall silent. (wallpaper 2000)
Midnight Sound still remains the perfect soundtrack to 21 century horizontal
dancing (Jockey Slut 2000)
Bet you didn..t think something this mutated could be this funky (echoes
2001)
Legends in their own circles of work, Bernd Friedmann and Uwe Schmidt have
always used the alias to explore the outer limits of their love for jazz.
The new album is much tighter in scope, sound, and execution, however
Dixieland and the blues are used, abused, and knocked slightly of kilter.
The results are subtle yet incredible.
See Magazine (2005)
The sombre blues "Funeral March" and the skipping doo-wop "How Long Is The
Wrong Way" are two prime examples from another credible and inventive
longplayer from these stalwarts of the "leftfield" scene. Impeccable.
