Release Notes:
Science for Girls is melodic electronica from New York songwriter and producer
Darren Solomon.
"...donÆt miss the musical juiciness that is Science for Girls, a Moby-style
electronica compilation featuring different guest singers on nearly every track.
Chilled out and heavy on processed electric pianos, this CD from New York
composer Darren Solomon maintains the same balance between synthetic and organic
that makes groups like Zero-7 shine."
-Keyboard Magazine
"...a perfect album for late at night when all you want to do is stop time and
stay up listening to your iPod just a little while longer."
-Emory Wheel
"Mmmmmàsweet sweet electronic goodness"
-Bon Ton
"Hearing how different talents mesh with Darren Solomon's mellow chords and
laid-back production style is a bit like biting into a mystery chocolate.
Whether you're met by creamy, lilting vocals, crunchy pitch-shifting plugins, or
rich caramel tones, the one thing you can count on is that you'll want more."
-Knobtweakers
"...an intoxicating effort buoyed by guest vocalists from the New York indie
scene."
-The State
"Science for Girls is NYC producer and songwriter Darren Solomon, and his album
is like a surprise wake up by a beautiful woman, who hasn't driven you crazy
yet."
-Parasites & Sycophants
"Science for girls is making me cry sweet sorrowful sugarwater in a secret
swimming pool in the basement of a cute, and apparently odd girl. It's so good i
almost don't want to listen to it, avoiding the inevitable tarnish."
-Comment on Comfort Radio
-----------
