Last Christmas seems only moments away, but that hasn’t stopped these four doughty Swiss musicians from decking the halls in their studio, getting the bass speakers to rumble and the loops to trill. In dulci dub jubilo! In their low-slung reindeer racing sleigh, Dub Spencer and Trance Hill glide through the night of nights with twelve box-fresh cover versions pumping through their speakers, utterly unafraid of overworking a cliché. Statistically, "love" is probably the most common subject in song lyrics, and many trite lines have been dedicated to it closely followed by Christmas. Now, our Zurich / Lucerne collective have lavished their charming, futuristic sound elements on the topic, pounding through this winter wonderland, hovering somewhere between pop, dub and surreal electronics, liberally spiced with retro roots rocker attitude with a lavish scattering of warm analogue delay and reverb effects. This album sits skilfully right at the intersection of elevator muzak and elegant dub, and it has a very simple, unpretentious message: without a groove there’s no dub and no Christmas either.
