‘Shake Shake’ isn’t one for the shakers, rather a dreamy pop EP from the German duo Miss Ueki.
Their debut is a 3 original song load with additional remixes from the lights of Liger, Duran Durandom & Yeah Pretty Boy.
“Circles 1.0” is a floating dream of indietronica held in a lo-fi manner and adjutated by the astral vocals to a nicely poised swell.
“Kyoto 0.9” is more upbeat but never too bouncy or over-the-top to become ill-fated. It’s the best Miss Ueki effort on ‘Shake Shake’. The song has a neat French lounge disco atmosphere that’s uplifted by commendable electro experiments with appealing lyrics and vocals.
“Reykjavik 1.0” is a ballad in a sample loop, with semi-tonal vocals and a fine, fragile pop melody.
‘Shake Shake’ is a good debut that knocks doors open for Miss Ueki to march through.
