Constant Light - Approach CS

I heard music by Constant Light before and I quite enjoy their take on electro-pop. I called it krauty and cosmic before (Vital Weekly 784) but on this new album, there are only short pieces. Some of these are brief interludes, which for all I care, could have been left off as they digress too much from the main dish and that is a bunch of lovely quirky pop songs. Lots of synths and drum machines (real drums on two tracks), in the tradition of early Depeche Mode, Andreas Dorau and Silicon Teens; well, perhaps not as silly as the latter. Had they been doing this stuff in the early 80s, I could easily imagine this being on Mute Records. Incidentally, there is also a song called 'Mute' here. The mostly falsetto voice (duties are not mentioned on the cover, so I have no idea who does what, except for the three guest players) fits the most perfectly; on 'Nothing's Right' there is a much darker voice and the tone of the piece is also sombre, which is perhaps out of place here. Otherwise, this is perfect pop music, worthy of a release on vinyl. Preferable this record should be by Mute Records of course.
