PRESS : BLACK GOLD 360
A perpetual flow of invention streams throughout the 50-minute set. Absorbing & incredible.
*TEXTURA MAGAZINE, USA
Nothing can fully describe the complexity of the clever and eclectic tracks.
*BARCODE MAGAZINE, USA
There is a sound, a force of persuasion, the ability to take charge of you. At the crossroads between modernity & spiritual elevation, between meditation & beauty.
*JAZZ MANIA, FR
What an album. It’s amazing how much is happening on it..rewarding from the first minute to the last. Epic, outrageous and grand.
*8000 RECORDS, DE
Quite simply one of the best and most accomplished releases ... Truly excellent.
*Marvin Suicide, RESONANCE FM, UK
The fullness of the tracks is almost unbelievable and makes a lot of what else is out there sound downright thin tin tin!
*Joe Woods - LOUNGE WORLD, USA
Excellent fusion of jazz meets electronics, in a beautiful package.
*Auke Ferwerda - 365 MAG, USA
A great album with some really inventive and genre-blurring tracks.
*Rusty Hodge - SOMA FM, USA
A wonderful album with lots of surprises that keep your ears in motion.
*Bernd Niedergesaess – RADIO 42, DE
A rebellious free mix of experimental jazz and electronics, with samples melting behind electronica. Album of the week.
*Menno Hoogendoorn - DJ SCENE, NL
Constantly evolving, order and chaos. Beautifully atmospheric. They’ve done it again. An excellent album, which I will be playing for a long time in the future!
*Stefan Koopmanschap - ELECTRONIC MUSIC WORLD
On first play the album presents more questions than answers. Beautifully strange sounds and weird almost beatless rhythm patterns create the tense soundtrack to a wordless film.
*MUSICFROM.NL
Black Gold 360 creates a seemingly perfect electro-jazz album that gives up new elements and details with every play.
*Filip Martens - KWADRATUUR, BE
A truly sublime electronic jazz environment.
*Theo Ploeg - OOR, NL
An interesting free form of electronic jazz which echoes the more thoughtful work of Miles Davis, Eno and Can.
*Omar Munoz Cremers - LIVE XS
Electronic music seems be entirely dead, so how nice it is once again to be excited by such a mixture of jazz and electronica.
*Perry Oostrum - HEAVEN MAGAZINE, NL
Crosses boundaries in a way that makes you smile and wonder. A miracle has happened.
*Dj Marcelle - ANOTHER NICE MESS, NL
Combines the depth of Triosk and the precision of Jan Jelinek.
*Fred Bourgeoid - WEBZINE NAMELESS, BE
Very, very good 21st century jazz.
*DESTINATION UNKNOWN RADIO, NL
Swinging jazz combined with edgy electronica and experimental audio. Sharp & striking.
*Filip Martens - RIFRAF MAGAZINE BE
Another hidden gem for you from The Netherlands
*Jake Funkmayor – FUNK CITY, USA
Swinging, rhythmic, modern jazz with a very good experimental character.
*Hans Invernizzi - JAZZ FLITS
Skillful and sleazy free-flowing electro-jazz.
*Dj Sander – RADIO MORTALE
An exciting album!
*GONZO CIRCUS
Atmospheric and relaxed without dissonances, with the keywords ‘instrumental’, ‘cool’, ‘Bill Evans’, L’ Ascenseur Pour L’échafaud (Miles Davis) and ‘lounge’.
*Oscar Smit - OOR
PRESS – ELECTRIC PUHA
"A must have ... Electric Puha's album "Sisters in Paradise" is a very fine record, a commercial homage to the sound of the underground and the whole album could be used as a soundtrack for a tarantino movie."
Avante Garde Magazine.
"How can you name this style ?"
Move X Magazine.
"..it's a fat record, it really is"
Dj Timur Perlin, Radio3 FM.
"I found myself playing this unpolished pearl of electro-lounge over and over again."
Dj Svendex, Supernatural.
"..the Puha sound is difficult to define. It’s a sort of cross-pollination of jazz, funk, electro & rock, with as a thread: the groove.."
Robbert Weij, GoMagazine.
"...Sisters in Paradise, feels simply like big fat unpretentious fun... it's like being submerged in a warm bath..."
Marco Barneveld, Reload Magazine.
".. electronic beats with dub/funk and rock elements are playfully combined resulting in an enriching, elevating and hot ensemble... Electric Puha do know how to put a signature to their songs whist using a wide palet of sounds... Go Puha!!"
Filip Martens, Kwadratuur
"Funny dance explorations from U-town City - three producers with a lot of atmospheres and themes within their powers - a bit of electro, a piece of big beat, a sniff of IDM and a touch of house, you want it, they've got it ... slick & professional"
Jacob Haagsma, Oor Magazine.
"..relaxed, sluggish and dubby it ain't. Hectic and complex dance is the order of the day, with a lot of Manchester and JXL influences"
Ro Krom, Fret Magazine.
"We are witness to an amazing drunken party ... these images were never meant to be watched by a third party and that makes it even more fun combined with Electric Puha's house beats"
Gert Verbeek, Fret Magazine.
"..they've made a record that immediately makes us dream of The Happy Mondays, The Stone Roses and the rest of the weird Manchester scene, but that's not all - they stash away all kinds of other influences in their music (electro, dub, funk, hiphop, ...) and make an eclectic, very varied and spirit-full brew.
Markus Neimenthaler, Digg Magazine.
"Nice chunky electro vibes - good choons for good weather"
Loes Lee / Kink FM.
"Electro you can enjoy whilst lying on the sofa combines with the manchester sound of The Happy Mondays, The Stone Roses & New Order but also with influences of Miles Davis & Herbie Hancock. On the DVD all the tracks are dressed with inspired videos from Dutch visual artists"
BB, Rifraf Magazine.
" .."Sisters In Paradise" is wild and versatile like tales from the red light district. Electric Puha sound totally individual, which is a big achievement nowadays ... Sisters in Paradise is a pure Rivella-album: a little strange, but nice."
Dave Roozendaal, Kindamuzik.
"A very wide sound with influences from electro, hip-hop and many more…peak time electro material with a punk punch.
High Rollers, Go Magazine.
