Info:
Очень классный проект Red Broad-а, с единственным пока релизом — Happy Hour In The Gene Pool. Альбом очень разнообразен по стилю и весь хорош, от начала до конца. Приятные джазовые вкрапления гитары, саксофона, кейборда в монотонный даунтемповый ритм позволяет расслабиться с первой минуты, но заснуть невозможно. Разнообразен и ритм, от даунтемпо и бита до медленного фанки-джаза. Мелодичный такой получился замес, который напомнил мне Дал Мартиновских NIGHTHAWKS и фаворитных DEEP DIVE CORP.
Все песни написаны Red Broad-ом, вокальные партии исполнила Margo Reymundo. Профессионализм музыкантов очень высок, а альбом подходит для прослушивания в любых условиях. (c) sklon

Evolve's chilled out grooves and breaks are produced by Red Broad. Their debut outing, Happy Hour In The Gene Pool is a delightful blend of lounge pop, subtle beats, found sound, and mellow jazz influences, a lounge lizard’s idea of heaven on Earth. The overall vibe is predominantly mellow, and the arrangements ooze sophistication and depth. Singer Margo Reymundo features on two tracks contributing her distinctive raspy, Billy Holiday-esque jazzy vocal stylings to "Couldn't Be More Wrong" and "The Way Back", with rapper Tantrum providing the testosterone on "By Definition: Cool" and "Mice On The Ice".
Happy Hour In The Gene Pool manages to stay focused and coherent throughout its sixty plus minutes while providing enough diversity to maintain interest, and enough depth to sustain repeated listenings. Most of the tracks presented here are ripe for the plucking by nearly any of the hundreds of chill out mix albums being released. The album is equally enjoyable to chill out to whether on headphones, at a cocktail party or on a long drive. Happy Hour In The Gene Pool contains a little something for every electronica music fan, which, in this case, is a good thing.
