A-side of this 2002 release can’t go wrong: the world famous “The Model” by Kraftwerk, like played by the group itself, and sung in Finnish. Some may say it’s blasphemy but here we have a strange-sounding but high-profile meeting of the electronic music greats and Finnish school of electro. The lyrics are funny and singing of Markus and Kristian may require some improvement – but I like it. On the flip a funky and rough electro song praising a number that signifies sexual position. We see also former Formula One champion on the label but I doubt he has any musical role here.
