A year after the breakthrough This Year's Girl, the Pizzicato Five once again transformed, this time into a sleek house music machine, releasing Sweet Pizzicato Five, a collection of sparse grooves over which Nomiya Maki becomes a disco diva.

The record is surprisingly free of the genre-bending inventiveness that usually marks their work. Still, the stomping "Tout Va Bien" is a fine song, as is Takanami's "Cosmic Blues." The songs' potential didn't go to waste, however -- the hard-to-find vinyl only Pizzicato Free Soul album features some terrific remixes, which turned up later on other releases. ~ Ted Mills, Rovi
