Link to the Show / Show NotesSan Francisco's newborn electronic duo, Fans of Jimmy Century, deliver groovy, tasty tracks, bringing to mind a mixture of Goldfrapp, The Januaries, & Oakenfold's alluring styles, but w/ a distinctive, undeniable flair all their own. The building security guard downstairs said we were the female electronic equivalent of the Dandy Warhols or The Killers...somewhat. Smooth beats & melodies come to life with a thick fringe of euro smash & noir cinematic soundtrack. Rats, sounded a bit syrupy, didn't it? How 'bout simply "the grooves are swell. the voice & the grooves rendezvous well." There. We've written our own review and it rhymes. The duo of vocalist/composer Alicia Peron and bassist/guitarist/programmer Victor James bring with them much experience with modern music having played the bay area club scene in several popular San Francisco bands. Feeling a natural pull toward the electronic/dance genre, Fans of Jimmy Century was born. Watch for some very visual live performances in 2007. What else do u say when you've only been going a month? Jimmy Century is slang for ? In other health-related news, Victor has quit smoking. Alicia's oral obsession with fake cigarettes remains. I've seen Beyond the Valley of the Dolls 23 times. The 23rd time I fell asleep in my apple jacks.
