FIND HERE FEEDBACK
THE REVOLVING EYES - Space Models (Moderne 001)
The result are 3 electro-disco bombs best described as a crossover between Alden Tyrell and Lindstrom, phat arpeggio basslines and dubby percussion.
From magic Jase (UK):
RECOMMENDED THE REVOLVING EYES TUBULAR EP Moderne (Bel), Moderne 002 : Boy-girl DJ duo Rob N Zoopsie have been keeping the Italo-disco flame burning in their native Belgium now for some time, so the move into production was perhaps inevitable. And convincing, too. Black Pine is just the sort of cosmic, electro and house fusion thats become all-too-common these days, but still sounds bloody good when done well. Eyes Light Move is an ethereal, arpeggiated groover that will find favour with fans of Alden Tyrell and the cocadisco massive. Tubular Dance is a gigantic, motoric space-disco bomb and the Disco Mix of Close To The Vibe is what Miss Kittin would sound like if she were produced by Patrick Cowley. Damn-near flawless. ****[4 STARS]
From Phonica records:
THE REVOLVING EYES-TUBULAR ep (Moderne 002):
This time the result are 4 electro-disco bombs - spiced with a cocadisco wave influence and nice vocals by Zoopsie which make us think about Cosey (from Chris & Cosey)
From Sound of the Universe :
THE REVOLVING EYES/ Ajello split ep (Moderne 004):Superb electronic disco from Ajello and The Revolving Eye - who were heard most recently on the superb double A-sider with Heartbreak!Awesome spacey italo stylings that will definitely appeal to fans of Metro Area!Recommended!
On www.Clone.nl:
Ajello / ThE REVOLVING EYES - Split ep with Ajello (Moderne 004)
A blend of modern nu disco with a peak of italian horror movies influences in Ajello's track added with the funky style of The Revolving Eyes. Incredible, sweet and seductive.
