CD Review: Ursula 1000, Undressed

Electro breakbeat maestro
Ursula 1000 (aka Alex Gimeno) knows how to manipulate the shelf life of an
album. Not satisfied with the original tracks of 2005's Here Comes Tomorrow, the multi-instrumentalist enlisted some of the
funkiest producers (Ladytron, Myagi) for Undressed.
The resulting sound is a melding of eclectic styles, ranging from electro and
techno to jazz and funk. The scat-heavy "Boop" shows off Latin jazz
chops. Each track pushes the drums to the forefront, delivering crisp beats
that get the toes tapping. Most impressive is the album's attention to
percussion ("Kaboom").
