Album Review: Bastian's Happy Flight - Heart/Works

Ross Clelland

Not as obviously pisstaking and one trick as Donny Benet, but a lot may depend on how seriously you regard Hall &/or Oates.

Westralian electronic thing which unashamedly uses the word 'disco' in their self-descriptions, but walks a carefully balanced line between the sincere and ironic. When it works, such as in the niftily titled Come For The Early (Stay For The Late) the moves are smooth and it's good music with it, but when they try for more soulful – for instance, Fight The Urge – it might be just a little self-conscious. Not as obviously pisstaking and one trick as Donny Benet, but a lot may depend on how seriously you regard Hall &/or Oates.
