X-Cetra
Summer 2000
Boomkat Product Review:
Like, whew WTAF!?! Preteen pop group X-Cetra are set to be your new obsession with Numero’s expanded reissue of their 2000 CDr release; a proper pre-sugar tax confection of R&B, Euro-pop, and all that, like some unknowing prototype for Sugababes or Girls Aloud, skooled on Spice Girls, and sounding like some immaculately well-executed hi-jinx from Olde English Spelling Bee and Ryan Trecartin, but trust it’s 100% real and authentic
The size of the grin on our mugs right now :))) ’Summer 2000’ is the purest sound of innocence from a not-so-distant but bygone era, put together by 10-12 year old elementary school kids Jessica, Ayden, Janet, and Mary, with some help from producers Robin O’Brien and Achim Treu.
That’s the lasses on the cover, and them singing like they’re at a sleepover with a tape recorder or even early PC and mic to hand, capturing remarkably finessed girl group harmonies and hooks set to immediately memorable backdrops that somehow veer from pop D&B via jazz skronk and bits of trip hop like Tricky via Leila and Teresa Winter or even RZA’s scoring Tracy Beaker
Honestly we have to keep pinching ourselves from song to song as the girls grant access to their suburban Spice World in, as Numero neatly put it, “a revealing portrait of millennial girlhood.” You’re invited to marvel at 11 songs stepping out with the Bryn Jones via Timbaland and Jackson 5-type shimmy of ‘Idiotic’, to free-floating, intricately braided harmonies in ‘Fly Into Your Arms’ on a backdrop of acoustic lilt and subtle FX.
It’s some of the most charming and confounding stuff we’ve heard in an age, switching up from sugary dance-pop pep on ‘Another Girl’ to proper guess-again vignettes of downbeat jazz-sampling sorcery reminding of Leila Arab via Moloko in ‘Speechless’, and the double-bass strapped centrepiece ’Summer 2000’ or a jaw-dropping ‘Wonderland’ recalling Pat Thomas’ jazz-jungle, thru proto-vaporwave ambient bop in ‘Forever’, and the type of pop-D&B that Girls Aloud made their own, but years later, on ‘Conversation.’
Definition of a no brainer. OMG!!!
