Stereophonic Space Sound Unlimited "The Spacesound Effect" 2000

FOUR DIMENSIONAL STEREO. 15 masterful songs, each unique and beautiful in its own way. With the help of their collection of strange vintage musical gadgets (perhaps the largest in Europe), the composers now present their recorded masterwork.
From their studio somewhere in Zurich Switzerland, Ernest Maeschi & Karen Diblitz once more take "old fashioned" electronic musical devices and create wonderment for the ears. This 3rd SSSU album took a while to grow on me, but is now firmly placed as my 2nd-favorite of theirs (right after THE FLUID SOUNDBOX). "The Spacesound Effect", "Senor Lopez", and my favorite "The Twisting Spy" are all stand-outs that have wedged their way into my mind like a beautiful, melodic form of brain-washing (hey, it's better than TV commercials!). They have 4 albums out now, and every one's a winner! ("The Forbidden Zone" (Camden, NJ))
This, the third CD by this Swiss duo, is by far their best effort yet. It does not fit in any particular category and therefore does not get much airplay. This is a real tragedy when ninety percent of what does get airplay is nothing but assembly line commercially manufactured garbage.
SSSU, on the other hand, takes images of sci-fi, lounge, spy, surf, and add their own special sauce to create an irresistible cocktail that is pure fun, highly danceable and unlike anything you've heard before. Let some fresh musical air come in your soul. Listen to the Space Sound Effect. You'll thank yourself for it. Reviewer:Baudouin Struye "Bo Struye" (L.A., CA USA)

Thanks Ryp! I like lots of different instruments in songs ever since first buying The Cardigans album 'Life' when it came out. Cheers!
