Marvin Dash - Model Turned Programmer, February 28, 2011
This review is from: Model Turned Programmer (Audio CD)
Good deep house from Marvin Dash on his album MODEL TURNED PROGRAMMER. The title alone makes me curious what he looks like, though the smooth juiciness of "Red Sparrow" makes me think he's a German version of a player. "Chocolate Weazel" only confirms my suspicions. The disco-gloss of "Rush Hour" isn't as nice, though, and highlights the weakness of the album: that Dash has a tendency to overuse a single theme in his music. If it's a good one, there's no problem. But it's a weaker one, like the long "Beat Treats"... This isn't a problem for "Motorcycle Emptyness," which parlays its theme into a delicate deepness or for "Friday Night with Burt Reynolds" (though the latter is probably a bit too long). "Looks Like We Are Coming Closer Tonite" ends the album on a slower note (and a forced fade-out), though no less danceable. Nice, if not particularly noteworthy.
