straight outta mongolia-fencing flatworm-cdr-the usual very nice ffr packaging (& the sleeve picture is exceptionally beautiful this time) /synthetic pop is pop music made with a synthesizer, ain?t it ?that?s what this record?s all about: the ultimate evidence synthpop isn?t a genre devoted to recycled gothasses dressed in shiny greased latex & metal-plated platform boots who wear welding-glasses and scream they?re gonna kill themselves every three words. ?baby drove a spaceship? som says, i say baby?s playing a great record in her spaceship?s stereo if she?s playing this one.

STRAIGHT OUTTA MONGOLIA - THE REDUNDANCY OF SAYING SORRY (CDR by Fencing Flatworm Recordings)
Fencing Flatworm Recordings have quite a nice catalog of underground music and each release comes with a nice full colour cover. Straight Outta Mongolia is mainly a vocal act (and have previous releases on labels such as Mothmoth before) who gets his beats and synths from Random Number on five tracks and one by Fluxorgy here. It's not something I can enjoy very much, I must admit. Crude and raw popmusic, or the residue thereof. Maybe I'm just getting a boring old guy. I can imagine that in a live concert this much nicer.
