Bad Loop - Luo (One/one018)
von Thomas L. Raukamp

Sparkling electronic has spilled over to us from Finland. "Luo" is the follow-up to his earlier releases at "Kahvi", a netlabel release that sparked much attention in the scene. somehow luo seems to me like a well-composed sound-track to an amiga game (god bless the amiga!!!), that's why i immediately harrassed bad loop on iChat. Gladly, the northern did not pout and instead ecstatically explained - emotionally accompanied by a few smilies - that he loved his Amiga 1200. You can compliment people in the most different ways...

Whatever. Luo is excellently produced, often inviting you to move, then again to dream in the coldness of Finland. In bad loop's music there is somebody who is confessing his love of melody without a trace of shame and here's a hint: "kauniit ihmiset" (whatever it means). It sounds great and is the third track on luo. take a listen!"
