Tenderotics

by Black Tape For A Blue Girl

supported by

rikm An excellent collection of remixes from the Ten Neurotics album. Mixes by Eric Wollo and Steve Roach add a certain ambient quality to their tracks and of course an appearance by Unwoman is always well appreciated.

An engaging listen and a great opportunity to rediscover some old favorites in a new light.

Uncle Brains Black tape for a blue girl's characteristic ethereal/dark-cabaret sounds is given several interesting twists in this collection of remixes and reinterpretations. Favorite track: the perfect pervert ERIK WØLLO MIX.

about

27 years into their career, Black Tape For A Blue Girl keeps it interesting with Tenderotics, 14 remixed and reimagined versions of tracks off their recent 10 Neurotics album. Remixers Steve Roach, Erik Wøllo, Android Lust, Unwoman, Steve Jones, Attrition, Valerie Gentile, and Sam Rosenthal approach the pieces with fresh ears, creating reinterpretations more electronic and edgy than the originals.

All the tracks luxuriate in the vocals, letting Laurie's passionate purr, Nicki's cynical growl, and Athan's croon shine.

Ambient artist Erik Wøllo helps reinvent two tracks, but instead of taking the music into space, he brings it to a pop/electronica place. Adding rhythm, groove, and deep analog electronic sounds, it's a catchy and sensual version of Black Tape For A Blue Girl on display here. Imagine, touching, comfort, adrenaline, whispers and intimacy, an ebb and flow of sensations.
