Following their debut album,
Enemy & Lovers
(mixed by
Cristian Vogel
) in 2003, and the release of their
Naked DJ Mix
in 2005,
Time
is the 2nd studio album from
Scratch Massive
-- 11 titles, along with the stellar cover of "Three Imaginary Boys," as approved by
The Cure
. Mastered by
Moritz von Oswald
(half of
Rhythm & Sound
), this powerful, dark and moving new album from the Parisian duet succeeds in combining the sharp and energetic electro feel of their DJ sets with a robotic melancholy and a typical new wave romanticism. Played either on a dancefloor or in a lounge, this record has a vigorous and modern feel, easily outclassing the attempts of electroclash fusion of the beginning of the 2000s.
Maud Geffray
and
Sébastien Chenut
, aka Scratch Massive, describe it best as a "dark electro" album, with tracks like "Silence" and "Shadows," revolving around the well-named "Soleil Noir." This is a modern electro album taking on its affiliation with pop music only to avoid the clichés of the genre, or the creeping nostalgia of the 2000s.
