Hanging Gardens

 

Artist: Classixx
Label: Innovative Leisure
RRP: £13.99
Release Date: 03 June 2013


Since their breakout 2009 single ‘I’ll Get You’, Classixx have been behind acclaimed remixes for Phoenix, Major Lazer, The Gossip and many more, as well as constantly touring. United by their mutual appreciation for gleaming melody, punk rock, disco and French house, their music is at once sunny, breezy and wistful, descended from similarly pop-minded melancholics like Fleetwood Mac, Prince, and Alan Braxe. Hanging Gardens is their new album...

Classixx's new album Hanging Gardens opens with a nod to Fleetwood Mac. 'Hanging Gardens' incorporates the memorable opening from Fleetwood Mac's 'Seven Wonders'; the link is obvious. The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Other highlights include 'Holding On' a funky disco tune; 'Dominoes', a dreamy dance track with a hypnotic repetitive sound bite.

The album contains 12 songs and lasts for 55 min, 46 sec. It's an interesting release which dance fans will enjoy.
