    .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ....TUSSLE – Skinny Wolves Unenhanced Late Summer Edition Mixtape // AUGUST 2010.. by ..SkinnyWolves.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. *************************************** .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .... ..CREAM CUTS PRESS----------------------------------- .. .. "The SF groove machine's third LP packs lessons learned from post punk and krautrock - into a rhythmic masterclass. **** four stars" .. - MOJO, Manish Agarwal, August 2009.. .. .. "Tussle take the muscle and momentum of motorik and liberate it with a joie de vivre that makes Cream Cuts endlessly listenable" .. - THE WIRE, Nick Southgate, June 2009.. .. .. "Re-igniting the flame of experimentalism, Californian four-piece Tussle have emerged as pioneers of a new Krautrock-infused rhythmrock hybrid. Putting a pair of drummers at the forefront of their songs, the San Francisco based band has breathed new life into postpsychedelic art rock."..- SKYSCRAPER MAGAZINE.. .. .. "Tussle push through the boundaries of every category they might be lumped into." .. - URB MAGAZINE.. .. .. "Tussle turns electronic music into a living, breathing form.".. - EAST BAY EXPRESS.. .. .. "one is welcome to drop a jaw at the rapidly developing power, versatility and un-cliched imagination of their instrumental chops.".. - LA WEEKLY.. .. .. "The numbly throbbing bass and hard-­hitting postdisco drums are so deep in the pocket they never see daylight"... - CHICAGO READER.. .. .. "The foursome succeeds in bridging the gap of dance-oriented connotations, welcoming a slew of world music genres into the mix and cleverly melding them together into its own brand of smart, mind-altering pop.".. - PERFORMER MAGAZINE.. .. .. "Tussle's Cream Cuts occupies a nebulous piece of real estate that lies somewhere in the neighborhood of Kraut rock, post-punk and house music." ***** Five stars.".. - CREATIVE LOAFING.. .. .. "In a loud, dense set, they sifted through heavy-rhythm music with roots in the 1970s and early ’80s. Locking together and pulling apart, they variously clamped right on top of the beat, got way behind it or positioned themselves in the middle, with high-hat patterns pumping.".. - THE NEW YORK TIMES (LIVE SHOW REVIEW at CAKE SHOP, NYC, 2009).. .. .. .. ................
