RE-FLEX: HIT 'EM WITH A HAMMER!
On first inspection, Re-Flex inspire a critical knee-jerk amounting to a giant “so what?”; but appearances, as we all know, are often quite deceiving. Sure, they’ve got a fistful of melodic, danceable synthesizer ditties that pay homage to the mechanics of Pop Music—like “Praying To The Beat” and “Hitline”—as well as taking a bow(ie) to the master himself by quoting “station to station” in their smasheroo “The Politics Of Dancing.”

On first inspection, Re-Flex inspire a critical knee-jerk amounting to a giant “so what?”; but appearances, as we all know, are often quite deceiving. Sure, they’ve got a fistful of melodic, danceable synthesizer ditties that pay homage to the mechanics of Pop Music—like “Praying To The Beat” and “Hitline”—as well as taking a bow(ie) to the master himself by quoting “station to station” in their smasheroo “The Politics Of Dancing.” That, in itself, is enough to raise a suspicious eyebrow. But the fact of the matter is that Re-Flex are much more than the latest British electrobop wheezebags, but also a genuine laugh riot.
