XLR8R

This 12" keeps Germany's Perfect Toy on the right track, with playful instrumentation and enchanting vocals from Dita von Aster. With production from Ralph Kiefer (ex-Hipnosis) and Marc Frank (from Les Gammas), "Chica da I¡i" is a splendid delight. The flip, the trio's cover of Trane's "My Favorite Things," is a good take on the classic. But I'm still smitten by the a-side, and it just might put a big stupid smile on your face.
