Listened Love in Other Dimensions, by Go-Go Sapien from Go-Go Sapien

12 track album

I came upon Go-Go Sapien after seeing Twinkle Digitz live, Will Hindmarsh’s solo act. Love in Other Dimensions by Go-Go Sapien is always musically rich and interesting, yet at the same time often silly and absurd. At the end of the day thought, it always feels sincere.

With so much going on in the world at the moment, I found this album the perfect escape into another world in which to enjoy and laugh in equal parts. As the FVMusicBlog captures:

I listened to the whole album with a smile on my face and an ear worm in my ear all day.

My favorite track is SexxxKisss. Musically, the verse is loose with the electronic beat never quite providing a clear groove. In contrast, the chorus drops into a clear hook and groove that never ceases to have me wanting to start moving. Oh, and then there is the rapping in the bridge:

First I take sex and then I take a kiss
Then I put them both together like a love barista
So now you got your mix of SEXKISS BLISS
Doctor Zeuss couldn’t put it any beter than this

To be honest, this albums feels like it borrows from everywhere, yet at the same time never quite fits anywhere. As soon as it begins to sound like something oddly familiar, the next track will be completely change things up. Triple J Unearthed suggest they sound like Ariel Pink, ween and The B52s. Others suggest Frank Zappa meets Flight of the Concords.
