Yes not since the days of Dee-lite has anything come out of the States so alternative, so... European. This is funky lounge music, reminiscent of Smoke City at their best, and very clearly Portishead-y in the Bristol group's more lowly moments. The four members of the Los-Angeles-based group trace bloodlines from Iran, Puerto Rico, Japan, Hawaii and Ireland which explains their lack of adherence to conventionality. Balaeric techno, hip-hop, drum and bass and lounge music all get mixed together in a potpourri of out-there digital exotica. The production has been compared to that of William Orbit's on Madonna's Ray of Light album, and that's not an unreasonable touchstone. The three lead tracks (\"Never The Same\", \"Goldigger\" and \"Last Girl On Earth\") are powerful slow burners. My advice: turn the lights off, light your incense (or whatever) and let them knock you over. After that, the Supreme Beings succumb to a musical malaise of their own lethargic making (inevitable, really, given their name). After the openers there's a lack of bite in their sound that leaves a hole in the sound. It becomes lo-fat music: it tastes right and looks right, but just isn't as satisfying. The Supreme Beings have made strong use of the Internet to promote their album, actively giving away some of their first songs as MP3s as a means of getting them off the ground. And here they are, ready to take off. If they can summon up the energy. --Jake Barnes Product description Supreme Beings Of Leisure ~ Supreme Beings Of Leisure\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 660200200626\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0660200200626\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IDshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42337795571971,"sku":"O0-GI8N-8MBL","price":20.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/41P0EB7E6VL.jpg?v=1642305746","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/supreme-beings-of-leisure","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
