Review

Q (4/02, p.122) - 3 out of 5 stars - "...Here's an artist album rendered as chillout mix CD, dipping into hip hop, rock guitars and a variety of ambient electronica..."
Alternative Press (8/02, p.84) - 8 out of 10 - "...Fresh rhymes from filthy-and-fly Peaches and Gonzales and Beatnik rapper Soda-Pop, along with warm robotics, futurostic keyboard swirls and midnight-dark ambient soundscapes, thrust the album firmly into the present."
CMJ (5/20/02, p.14) - "...A melange of blues, jazz, down-tempo house, hip-hop and robot-pop pieced together perfectly..."

Title Note

Telepopmusik: Antipop (vocals, synthesizer, sound effects, scratches); Stephan Haeri (guitar, keyboards, drums, programming); Fabrice Dumont (banjo, double bass).

Additional personnel includes: Angela McCluskey, Soda-Pop, Chilly Gonzales, Peaches (vocals); Christophe Minck (harp); Geoffrey Tamisier (trumpet); Pascal Charpentier (piano); Sebastien Buffet (brushes).

"Breathe" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording.

Telepopmusik consists of three French multi-instrumentalists and programmers, Stephan Haeri, Christophe Hetier, and Fabrice Dumont, who create atmospheric, chill-out pop music incorporating odd sound-bites, random raps, and often featuring sultry female vocals, mostly by the Wild Colonials' Angela McCluskey. While similar to Air and Zero 7 on first listen, there's more experimentalism, something a bit duskier about their music. Telepopmusik's sound is almost as if a boozed-up 1950s jazz-standards combo was asked to collaborate with Kraftwerk and Serge Gainsbourg in the seediest of late-night bars.

The title track from GENETIC WORLD breaks down the phrase until it's indecipherable and layers it over an '80s sci-fi movie theme. This follows the sleepy, sensual balladry of the hypnotic dance single "Breathe," McCluskey's Holiday-channeling finest moment. Dirty Beatniks rapper Soda-Pop drops in throughout the record, his strongest point coming when he both produces and languidly raps on "Da Hoola." And, adding to her ever-growing list of guest appearances, indie icon Peaches and frequent collaborator Chilly Gonzales team up with a chilling bass on the infectious "Let's Go Again."
