Synth pop and good-time fun, or at least that's what comes to mind immediately
with Solvent's dancey homage to '80s kitsch, Solvent City. While Solvent's
Solvent City isn't going to knock your socks off with its critical work on the
periphery of dance music, it will do more than that and make you smile. After
hearing so much of the serious dance music that's out there being
intellectualized and eulogized, it's nice to have a disc that's both fun and
happy. There's no end-time message or credo to the technologically ruled world
here, just fun and exciting beats and '80s synth timbres. Solvent's Solvent
City is a lighthearted and jovial disc that seems more like the soundtrack to
an '80s Molly Ringwald movie than a 2001-released disc coming off the German
label Morr Music. Solvent's Solvent City is a lot like Daft Punk's Discovery
with its tribute to '80s kitsch. This is a fantastic recording and one that no
synthesizer-fiend or lover of great music should be without. A fantastic disc
and great work.
