*Pretty Girls Make Raves is a 45-minute tribute to analog synths, overdriven vocals, Baltimore club and throbbing bass-heavy techno music. Anyone who has been to one of Kid606's recent high-energy live performances has heard some of these tracks, all created specifically to keep the bassbins thumpin' and the dancefloor moving. With a minimum of samples, these songs are densely packed with layer upon layer of jackin' funked out sonics, fuzzy vocals, subtle edits and immense twisted buildups. True to the 4/4 techno rush made classic by artists like Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier, Daft Punk, Ark and Green Velvet but with the lyrical content and punk spirit of the Germs, Ministry and Black Flag, this is not future music or sci-fi obsessed electro in any way; this album is about fun, fun, and more fun.
