Album Review: Tijuana Cartel - Psychedelicatessan

StarStarStar

"This magic carpet ride to the Psychedelicatessan embraces a bright electronic pop sound that's proudly psychedelic hippy."

More Tijuana Cartel Tijuana Cartel

In the past, Queensland outfit Tijuana Cartel have focused on instrumental dance workouts but this magic carpet ride to the Psychedelicatessan embraces a bright electronic pop sound that's proudly psychedelic hippy. 

"Eating the sky with a spoon/Sweeping the stars with a broom," they sing taking their cue from vintage Beatles on Maharishi albeit with big fat electronic beats and bass. Hilariously surreal spoken-word samples from the radio play What's Rangoon To You Is Grafton To Me suggest those mushrooms you bought at the Psychedelicatessan were not chanterelles.
