By the last albums of Ruxpin and Jonson, Mikrolux has already given electronic music both modern and sensually-melancholic influences. By the Icelandic band of four called Worm Is Green, this aesthetic sound alliance is continued brilliantly. The Band was originally founded as bedroom elektronika project by Arni Teitur Asgeirsson. Meanwhile, it has become a band of five, also featuring Bjarni Thor Hannesson (sampler and synthesizer), Thorsteinn Hannesson (drums), Vilberg Hafsteinn Jonsson (bass) und Gudridur Ringsted (vocals). Their debut album 'Automagic' was released on Thule in 2003 and published once again on the US label Arena Rock in 2004. 'Play Push' is a perfect blend of British New Wave, the 4AD-Sound of the Cocteau Twins and essential Portishead-like TripHop. The result: dazzling and elegant pop jewels which, nevertheless, do not deny their intensive contemporary ambient influences. As a kind of 'dessert' following the regular album, Worm Is Green now present a comprehensive remix anthology.

Finally, Kuurort label mastermind Kaido Kirikmae puts a perfect last point under the absolutely congenial continuation of the striking 'Push Play' album by his brittle slow motion minimal house version of 'Sunday Session 4.02' (taken from 'Automagic').
