The Queens of Electronic Cool are back! The stylish ladies with their skilful hands for electronic music are plunging us headlong into an addictive maelstrom of groovy Minimal Disco, mingled with the coolness of New Wave and an unerring Pop sensibility. Compared to the big scale cinemascope-sound of “Heartland”, Client have returned to their very essence: “Command” is a raw and straightforward production dominated by analog synthesizers and Minimal Electro arrangements with full, club-friendly beats. Following the credo that less very often equals more, the trio has conjured up a highly versatile album from these basic ingredients. Bare bone dance tracks such as “Believe In You” or “Satisfaction” breathe the foggy air of trendy clubs, the sinister “Don’t Run” is a gripping little sonic angst scenario and songs like “Can You Feel” are perfect Pop tunes. No matter which musical realm the band enters – the result is always stylish and catchy as hell. Alternating between girlish innocence and femme fatale, Client skilfully play their cards, knowing full well that their new album is raising the bar for Minimal Disco, New Wave and Alternative Pop. The limited first edition comes as a double CD with bonus disc. Game, set and match!
