GARY MOSCHELES "Shaped To Make Your Life Easier"
SSR 171 CD / LP+7"
Very rare edition vinyl version album by Mike Paradinas (Mu Ziq) who runs
the label Planet Mu - under his 'Gary Moscheles' alias.
Also included is a bonus 7" with two tracks that do not appear on the album.
Sleeve is a little dirty but the vinyl is in excellent condition.
_____________________________________
By day Mike Paradinas labours under the µ-ziq moniker, creating disjointed,
awkward and angular tracks that shift the boundaries of what's acceptable in
esoteric techno. At night, he dons a cape and becomes Gary Moscheles, the
epitome of cool and the world's greatest swinger.
As a louche lounge lizard to rival Dean Martin, the alter-ego in question is
only interested in music you can dance to - as opposed to usic for the
brain - arid he goes to great lengths to create the perfect atmosphere for
hedonism.
From the vibes samples of 'Mamborama' to the ridiculous and OTT parody of
showbiz insincerity that is 'Gary's House', Moscheles plays around with any
strand of dance he can think of.
"Shaped" meshes a funky, organic feel with the trademark offbeat quirkiness
which can be found in previous projects by Gary's various alter-egos.
Gary Moscheles mashes up funk, jazz, disco, jazz funk and funky jazzy disco
breaks with twittering synths and syrupy vocals into a highly innovative
slab of (ch)easy listening.
