TRACK REVIEW: S.K.X Funkanauts – Murmurs From Earth feat. Annie J

I like this song. I was even amused by the press release which is a very rare thing. Murmurs From Earth makes a pleasant change from the slew of guitar bands I review on a regular basis. Musically it takes the form of a ‘70s sci-fi influenced ‘80s Italo mash-up with plenty of bleepy and blippy synthesisers a la the BBC Radiophonic workshop. It’s danceable too.

S.K.X Funkanauts are obviously obsessed with space and science fiction, and why not? It’s good to get out of this world now and again, isn’t it? Falsetto vocals a la Scissor Sisters accompany the instrumental with plenty of harmony. I couldn’t tell you where they are from. Actually I could. It’s the galaxy of Dynatron.
