CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Titan were huge in their native Mexico at the start of 2000 but little known elsewhere. Blending a mixture of horn-driven acid-jazz with the funkier end of big beat, Elevator is a kaleidoscopic foot-tapper just right for summer days and tequila-fueled nights. With production credits that include Craig Borrell and Ross Harris (Dust Brothers, Beck) as well as Michael Franti (Disposable Heroes), these are no ordinary grooves. Opener "1, 2, 3, 4" is B-52s for the chemical generation, while "Corazon" combines squelchy Hammond organs, vocals reminiscent of Sergio Mendes's "Brasil '66," and the head-nodding spirit of the Wiseguys onto one track. The album also includes Titan's signature piece, an inspired interpretation of the theme to the '70s cop show Starsky & Hutch. "Cum on Feel the Noize" is a more literal cover, but elsewhere on this retro-heavy collection, the ghost of Huggy Bear looms large and proud. --Paul Tierney Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsMexican Electronica Eliseo Soto Ayala | Cd. Madero, Tamaulipas Mexico | 10/13/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "If you like electronic music like The Chemical Brothers or Daft Punk or even Plastilina Mosh, then you should give Titan a listen, like Plastilina you'll have no clue that they're from Mexico if you just hear the music (maybe just the fact that some of the samples they use are in spanish). And another good thing is that there's an interactive track full of retro 80's videogames just to put you in the mood of this guys." Promete, pero se queda corto e.s. ortiz-gonzalez | Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico United States | 02/20/2002 (3 out of 5 stars) "Este disco promete, de veras, pero se queda corto. Su momento mas interesante ocurre en la segunda cancion. Pero lo demas, aunque produce algo de disfrute, no emociona. No hay riesgos. Bajo la apariencia de desorden, todo sonido en este disco esta milimetricamente medido, que en principio no esta mal, pero no se, no provoca esa emocion que produce un album excelente. Espero que en su proximo disco -si no lo han hecho aun, este disco que reseno es del ano de 1999- me convenzan de que debo comprarlo." C'mon Feel The Noise Charles Hobson | 12/03/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "White hot guitars, great samples, and a sound that goes from surf to funk by way of Tijuana and 70s cheese-rock while the beats crush you to a pulp. Plus almost nobody knows about them. I would love to see them live."
