Dana Buoy might be best known for his work in Akron/Family, but "Summer Bodies" is the best work he has done to date to these ears. Granted, the ears I'm referring to are a much bigger fan of pop music than the experimental direction that much of Akron/Family usually takes (though they seem to always have one song on every record that is off-the-charts good, and catchy). This is a great summertime record, something you listen to with your windows down driving some country roads to a local swimming hole. The second track "Call To Be" is especially strong, and has already found it's way onto a few mixes. He may or may not be breaking any new ground making another vaguely danceable synth-heavy electro pop records, but it's hard to argue with the results, that being a very enjoyable & listenable record.
