Boxsaga - Computer Love

The latest in a honourable tradition of choons acknowledging the sexy world of digital technology. No, this isn't a cover of Kraftwerk's legendary homage to the age of the machine, but it does dwell in a silicon neighbourhood just a double-click away.

Computer Love is the work of one Nick Phillips, responsible for some Detroit style Techno on the now defunct Island Blue label. Augmented by the lyrics and vocals of one Lola Olafisaye, Computer Love veers into more saucy R&B territory, particularly on the Electric Click Mix.

Most of the mixes recall the more robo-funk tendencies of Grace Jones' celebrated years with Sly 'n' Robbie at the production helm. But Phillips updates the sound, making it nervier. This could be one for the DJ sets at Nag Nag Nag, if you get the picture.
