If the androgynous quartet of Kraftwerk spawned an over-sexed son to continue their robotic revolution, it would be the sex machine, David Scott. Over the last two decades, Scott has worked with the likes of Gary Numan and reportedly turned Van Halen onto electronic sounds in the '80s, all the while recording under a variety of pseudonyms. This latest six-song release finds him embracing the cosmopolitan feel of Montreal, on "Montreal, Ville Nouvelle," and the synth-heavy sound of Kraftwerk. Label-mate Reno Disco remixes "Space Truckin'" into an experimental house bobber. It is a tongue-in-cheek, cyborg sex music soundtrack.
