First, I'm a huge Tipsy fan, so when this release was announced, I jumped on it right away.
No single track on Buzz has that 'instant hit' sound like "Hey", or that intensely drunken and hypnotic vibraphone and sax sound like "Fur Teacup" on Uh Oh. Ok, so there's no single track that matches the ultra-hip sound of "Ugly Stadium" on Trip Tease (did you catch that track in the Sopranos soundtrack?).
But Buzz, Tipsy's third release, is not disappointing! I can play these tracks infinitely and it doesn't grow old. It's like a time-distortion field that I'm trapped in. A moebius strip of sound that is not just background music - but rather background manipulation. If Martin Denny and Esquivel had used Absinthe and Magick to compose their music it would have sounded like this.
"Midnight Party" and "Good Little Demon" have risen to the top of my favorites with their catchy rhythms.
If you are like me, and sorely miss Combustible Edison, pick up every Tipsy release you can get your hands on, before they can't be found anymore.
Tipsy is not just new and authentic lounge music played well, it's authentic lounge music that actually makes you drunk - just by listening to it...

5.0 out of 5 stars Scary good, August 24, 2010

Tipsy was around for eleven years when this album was released, yet they were good enough from the start. What does that mean? Well, if you liked their other albums (1997's Trip Tease and 2001's Uh-Oh!) then you'll like this one. And if you didn't, you're clinically insane!

But really, why should you buy this?

1. Because you'll be cooler than everyone else you know.
2. Because you'll get more "perfect tens" than anyone else.
3. Because you know reasons 1 and 2 are enough to justify the minimal cost.

So don't buy it because Electric Blue Eyelashes is the smoothest exotica track every recorded, or because See the Beauty, Touch the Magic is the world's most motion-sickness-inducing hook-up song. Buy it because you'll be a better person with it. By a very high margin.
