The Electric State
Bursting with waves of electronic bliss comes 'Another World', the debut album from singer / songwriter Jon Yale. Known as The Electric State, his first solo vehicle has produced a commercially viable, radio friendly collection of dance, pop songs. Like a masculine version of The Pet Shop Boys, a little David Bowie, this 11-track offering was produced by Jon Yale and Simon Gardner at Rockliffe Studios, spanning 40 fun filled minutes.
Jon began writing and recording at 17. He became lead guitarist with PSST (Psycho Sexual Sex Terrestrials), the most notorious punk band in the region at the time, and enjoyed various degrees of success, though he should reach new levels with this album.
"Another World is very, very good: upbeat, catchy tracks, a frenzy of deliberate instrumental changes and a strong vocal. 'I’m Not Coming Down' is the big-hitter, a looping wall of sound, arguably the best here.
Jon has made a highly entertaining and polished CD that’s well worth a listen."
“Lyrically, the songs are flawless. Melodically, they are catchy, infectious and certainly sellable†- Chromium Records
“Enough guitar pop sensibility to set it apart from anything else out there†- Dusty Moonan/The Afflictions
