Album Notes Personnel: Howie B. (vocals, keyboards, programming); Robbie Robertson (vocals); Jeremy Shaw (guitar, keyboards, sound effects); Jony Rockstar (programming). TURN THE DARK OFF is techno wizard Howie B.'s latest batch of electronic innovations for Island Records. A warm, dripping collage of beats and buzzing melodies unfolds smoothly, at a decidely easy pace. Tunes and samples rise out of the mix and situate themselves solidly in your ear, a pleasant change of pace from the cut-and-paste formula of other popular rock-techno acts. Downtempo memories of disco nights fuse with an open-prairie vibe, suggesting nothing so much as Ennio Morricone on acid. Perfect music for the "Charlie's Angels" room of ANY party! Chill or be chilled.
