"Stereoboy is Luis Salgado. A musician
from Tomar, who recently used to play in U-Clic. The only similarity
between these Stereoboy and U-Clic, is that both projects play
electronic music. However, U-Clic sounds more rock or industrial. In
Stereoboy the thing is much more refined. Most of the time, Luis
Salgado gives us soothing melodies, closer to bedroom pop. These are
sounds that are dotted with some experimentation. Themes that
sometimes carry us to our childhood and remember, old music boxes
with ballerinas dancing, or even some toys that we review in old
photographs.
As proof, here is all very simple. Very teenager. So far everything still smell the 80s. And there was the fact that Luis started the first sketch melodies. Arrived at the now Stereoboy presents us with this new job and its accomplices in the voices, Sofia Riscado, JP Coimbra, Helena Veludo and Birds Are Indie. Then also has precious aids Daily Misconceptions and Rui Maia (X-Wife). This EP already had a physical edition on cdr format edited by cãoceito. The band decided to release the digital version, which includes an extra theme with Emanuel Botelho from Sensible Soccers. There is no time to lose, because it would be a sin to let escape this crystal clear music. Works like this are for eternity and make us dream and wish to smear their lips with cotton candy."

Certamente non si stanno scrivendo nuove pagine del libro dell'indietronica, ma questo "ème" di Stereoboy è senza dubbio un gran bell'album. Con gli immancabili carillion ed una collezione di campanelle di ogni dimensione e peso a creare un sottile velo dreamy che ricopre l'intero lavoro. Chitarre che mi ricordano tanto i tedeschi Notwist...ed in effetti il profumo che si respira durante l'ascolto è decisamente mitteleuropeo, più che portoghese. Ma oramai, per fortuna o purtroppo, siamo negli Stati Uniti d'Europa e questi paragoni o accostamenti non hanno grande importanza. Un 10 e lode a "m-2", con un lungo intro di chitarra arpeggiata che conduce, tramite uno stacco che inserirei nella famosa enciclopedia degli stacchi, ad una seconda parte cantata che trasuda new wave eightes da ogni poro. Sette tracce apparentemente semplici ed estremamente accurate nei particolari che hanno la capacità di abbracciarti e di farti sentire il loro tiepido calore autunnale. Assolutamente da inserire nella collezione dei 50 album di indietronica più belli.
