Description:2010 release from the Danish Pop/Dance outfit, the follow up to their enormously successful This Is Alphabeat album. The Spell has it's eyes dead set on the horizon ahead and is full of great songs built on properly affecting retro Pop styles. You'll have heard the Mantronix like Funk-Pop of first single 'The Spell', but there's the slippery Filter-House of 'DJ', the piano riff meets speaker rattling bassline of 'Hole in My Heart' and the R&B touched, Down-tempo reach of 'Q&A'. You might go for 'Chess' with it's fantastic pitch bend vocal samples rarely heard since 1989. Right near the end of the record is the epic, euphoric bliss of 'The Right Thing' where a Black Box style big piano screamer tumbles down a huge great chasm of a breakdown. No need for a remix: everything you'll ever need is right here! Universal.
