Pekka Laine - Pekka Laine And The Enchanted in Slumberland - CD DIGISLEEVE

Cosmic Twang, Singing Robot and Underwater Disco
" In a dream I heard music with a strange bubbling sound. People were dancing to it in a
surreal, cavernous space. What is this, I asked. One of the dancers stopped and answered.
It's an underwater disco. In the morning, I grabbed my guitar and tried to recall what I had
heard. Those foggy fragments became Malibu Beach."
For Pekka Laine, the twang of an electric guitar is not a warm blanket of nostalgia. Instead,
the echoing sound usually associated with surf and retro instrumentals is a ticket to the
imaginary. Malibu Beach is the first glimpse of the follow-up to the critically acclaimed
debut, The Enchanted Guitar of Pekka Laine. On this sonic journey, Laine is joined by The
Enchanted, his powerhouse live band that has taken both festival and club stages by storm.
Pekka Laine and his trusty space-age guitar take the listener to a place where a futuristic
and humid disco sound, perfect with obese beats and robotic vocals, reigns supreme. Trippy
vocoder vocals and Moog wizardry are provided by Antti Vuorenmaa, the synth sensei
associated with several leading Finnish indie bands and a trusted member of the extended
Enchanted family.
