Around the World
Senor Coconut is one in a dizzying array of pseudonyms adopted by the German-born, Chile-based post-techno experimentalist, Uwe Schmidt (aka Atom Heart). On AROUND THE WORLD, Schmidt presents a wry, humorous take on club and synth-pop classics done in a kitsch Latin-Exotica style. Befitting the album's title, AROUND THE WORLD serves as a kind of travelogue of global dance music, taking in musical destinations as far afield as lounge standards from Brazil ("Corcovado") and Cuba ("Que Rico El Mambo"), to globe-trotting club hits by France's Daft Punk ("Around the World") and Belgium's Telex ("Moskow Diskow").
