Review

Aquarium is the third album by Naomi, and perhaps their best one ever with more pop-sensibilities and is guaranteed to be intriguing as it is exciting. Not that their previous albums (Everyone Loves You, 2002, and Pappelallee, 2004) didn't get their share of jubilant reviews: The Süddeutsche Zeitung, one of Germany's most respected dailies, described Naomi's sound as a "perfect balance between bittersweet harmonies and relaxed rhythms which seemed to be only the privilege of Air and the Pet Shop Boys"; the KulturSpiegel enthused about "elegant, dreamy but always modern electro pop"; and Rolling Stone gave them four stars - calling the duo, "fabulous". Then again, a band who made it onto more than 70 compilations worldwide must have something special, don't they?

So now: Aquarium. As atmospherically engrossing as you'd expect, but by wholly new means. The duo abandons their earlier love of wide soundscapes and instead we get reduced, almost minimal arrangements, guitars and Wurlitzer piano, mellotron and sparse synthesizers over dry hip-hop beats. Instrumentals no longer; not "tracks", but quite traditionally structured songs, warranted hits. Bernd Lechler and Nico Tobias are fantastic songwriters and with Aquarium they've risen from the pigeonhole of downtempo music for good.
