With his debut album Cirque de L' Amour, Stereo Express shows his wealth of variety as well as his verve for thrilling vocals. After the seething "Intro," followed by "When I'm With You" and "La Vie En Rose," you step foot into the world of Stereo Express. "Freedom" reveals his pop affinity with inclusive, catchy vocals, a rolling bass and a divine electric guitar, and "Stranger" starts with a dominant kick drum. Produced together with label mates umami and U So Witty, "Stranger" is a longing, pulsing piece that develops a proper suction with its haunting synths. Sakso is Stereo Express' studio partner-in-crime and "Agoria" indicates with its floating character not only an impressive climax, but that this duo is simply a dream team. "All Over You" was made with the support of Sakso and Shimmy Timmy, and it's a prancing track that breathes a good dose of sex appeal and desire through a funky bass guitar. While the deep bass line of "Looking for Somebody" won't let any hip be unmoved, the wonderful vocal sample of Ciara's "Promise" evokes a delightful mood. After the good-humored "Nasty Groove," the last track "Cooking with Izolda" with its warm keys and voice of Serbian singer Izolda Barudzija provides a perfect conclusion. Cirque de L'Amour is a terrific debut that transports a gallant and courageous mood and a hedonistic and highly-emotional aura. With numerous guests such as Sakso, Timmy Shimmy, Ester Cattoir, umami and U So Witty, Stereo Express offers a versatile mix with many dancefloor grenades. In addition to the heart-wrenching grooves and the colorful melodies with piano, saxophone and strings, Stereo Express demonstrates his feel for impressive and sexy productions that constitute the charm of Cirque De L'Amour.
