"Roger Manning (RJMJ to fans) and Brian Reitzell of Redd Kross join forces with the help of Jason Falkner to deliver the best soundtrack to an imaginary movie - ever! The songs are not only nostalgic, atmospheric, and humorous: they're downright well-written. Not only that, but the level of plot description in the liner notes only makes me wish that "Logan's Sanctuary" were a real movie. Jason Falkner's excellent solo number, "Search for Tomorrow" recalls James Bond movies and lounge singers. To top it all off, the tagline is "Beyond the Raynbo...freakish machine ecstasy!" This phrase can mean only one thing - buy Logan's Sanctuary right now."

Good cheesy fun

"Your enjoyment (or eye-rolling dismissal) of this deliberately kitschy side project by members of Jellyfish and Air depends on whether you can buy into the one-joke premise: This is the soundtrack for an imaginary sequel to the 1976 sci-fi film "Logan's Run". Within that context, the project certainly delivers that mid-70's feel with almost exclusive use of assorted "vintage" synths and keyboards. Power-pop wunderkind Jason Falkner delivers in spades on the anthemic "Search For Tomorrow", the lone vocal performance in this otherwise all-instrumental set. In thier better moments,some songs recall Kraftwerk's "Computer World" period; the one or two clunkers sound like generic porno soundtrack fill (uh, er, I mean,not that I WATCH a lot of that stuff...)At any rate, if you already get a kick out of Air, High Llamas or Stereolab, you'll likely find this a pleasant diversion."

Dreamylike awesome music to transport you into Logan's World
