Lottergirls - Bonfini E.P.

Haunting, suspense-laden, dark and menacing

Single Review by Karen Taggart | 11 May 2007
Label: TNT / Four Music
Lottergirls is the new "super-electro-punk-funk-group" comprising of Princess Superstar, Fetisch, Baxter Wilderbeast and AndMe, aiming to put a feminine twist on the electro-punk sound. Their first EP Bonfini takes its' inspiration from the Berlin Italian restaurant of the same name, a place where artists, DJs and lost souls hang out to eat, drink and get fucked up. The EP has four Bonfini mixes: Track 1 (original mix - Fetisch and AndMe) is very New York, reminiscent of the Fischerspooner sound – haunting, suspense-laden, dark and menacing, slowly building to a crashing crescendo. Track 2 (9 inch Spaghetti Jack) contains deep, brooding vocals and paranoid lyrics, with a faster house beat, and Tracks 3 and 4 (Headman and Sameboy) have thumping basslines, ideally suited to damp, dirty clubs with cramped, sweaty dancefloors. This is a small taster of what's to come when the Lottergirls debut album is released later in the year, providing original electro dance tracks of superb quality, in what seems to rapidly becoming an over-saturated genre.
