Here are some listeners reactions to Fez Dispenser:
***********************************************************
Fez Dispenser''s fourth full-length CD Elephant Etiquette is a soulful CHill-out album.
Fez Dispenser''s sound takes trip-hop up a musical notch and a couple of steps farther left of center.
This CD has a hard to define, hand-made quality that is rare in electronic music.
I get the sense that these songs started with a combo jamming loosely before the tracks were scrambled and given the spaced-out treatment. Regardless,the results are something I didn''t think I''d hear from trip-hop; a new sound.
This disc migrated to the player in my Acura 2 weeks ago and I can''t seem to play anything else while I''m driving. It''s strange that such abstract instrumental music has been stuck in my head. It''s like a mentos jingle that doesn''t make me want to kill someone.
All in all I''d recommend this CD to anyone who likes music that grooves.
It is the cure when I''m burned out on the attitude and drama of the
"this is my ride, these are my clothes" hip-hop we''re seeing lately.
After google-ing Fez Dispenser every which way all you find out is that:
A) they''re from L.A
B) apparently they just NEVER leave the studio.
I guess that''ll have to do.

An Antidote to Boring Electronica
Rather than falling for any of the cliches of electronic and sampled music, Fez Dispenser contains intriguing blends of jazz, Latin and middle-eastern elements, combined into into a new smooth, but not slow or boring sound.
There''s an interest depth and range to all of the tunes in the album, and I think there''s a love of music here that really comes through to the listener.
If you''re looking for something cool, and not cold it''s definitely worth checking out.

Trip-bop, hip-bop, bip-bop - whatever you want to call this stuff, it’s very good and
completely original. There are no comparisons that would do this music justice. They avoid the faceless anonymity that plagues a lot of instrumental music. This stuff has
personality, with interesting rhythmic structures and melodies that are challenging without being stupefying.

This is Very Cool Music.
This is very cool music. Beautiful. My blood pressure went down once the track started
playing. Please post some more!

Here''s a grooooooooove for those who love ambient trip-hop. To put on something in the background that keeps your head bopping while doing something else. This is music for
programmers - music for working - music for restaurants - music for stores. Of course if you''re a fan like me you can also totally dig on the amazing layered musicality of these loops, horns, basslines, and subtle production techniques. Or you can just put it on at work, and have everyone ask you all day, "What IS this?!?" Make sure
you send ''em to CD Baby
when they do. :-)

There you go. THat''s what some other folks think.
For the next month, all four Fez Dispenser CDs are on the $5 specials sale at CD Baby.
You could buy all four FD CDs for 20$ or any 3 for $15...I''m just sayin. :-}
Also there''s some hidden extra/free stuff I''m only telling CDBaby customers about:
Printed on the CD itself is a web address. Go there and click on the ''free mp3s'' link. Instead of downloading those songs, click on the ''skin and barrel music'' logo. Then you''ll see the album cover for this CD. Right click on snappy''s mouth (that''ll make sense once you''re there) and save the bonus mp3 to your hard drive. That''s a song that isn''t available anywhere else. After you grab the bonus track, play the Fez Dispenser video game. It''s goofy, but highly addictive. Also, don''t forget to check out the free video downloads and other free Mp3s available at the sight.
Enjoy.
