Cornelius - Fantasma


Everyone that hears this record is instantly addicted. That's all I'm going to say!

"Digital soundscapes around incredible chunks of catchy pop music. From the happy- go- lucky harmony assault of "New Music Machine" to the straight- up Apples In Stereo sound of "Chapter 8: Seashore and Horizon" to the video game melodies of "Thank You For The Music" and the surprisingly rockin' "Count Five or Six" (which, oddly enough, is music set to samples of people counting), there's no rescue from Fantasma's saccharine soundwaves." - Pitchfork
