The Color & Colour EP is the latest offering from Detroit's Radio Wire Empire, aka singer/songwriter Matt Romanski. The 7 tracks of electropop/shoegaze are catchy and fun. It would be easy to point to influences from LCD Soundsystem to Atlas Sound to, dare I say it, The Postal Service, but though the music has a familiar feel, it is distinct and original. Touches of lo-fi sneak in when least expected, minimalist beats propel the tracks forward and with synth work binding it all together, the whole thing just works. A good time is guaranteed for all.
