" Great Elektro-Spacepunk-hymns, which move somewhere between Aavikko, Daft Punk and power station"

"The new album "Mario built my hot rod" is out now via Germany's 9pm Records and is absolutely brilliant. My wife played it for her class of two-year-olds at preschool and they all danced to it for 45-minutes straight. And then they wanted to do it again! If that's not high praise, I don't know what is. Very, very recommended."

"To friends of decent 8-Bit-soundcarpets I herewith recommend Desert Planet. There are probably people dancing to this stuff on/in front of their computers and clap their hands. High Score!!!"

Seltsamstrasse 162 17.05.2005 (Germany) : Return of the ninja droids
http://www.blogigo.de/seltsamstrasse/entry/88579
That was Desert Planet from Finland who are playing sort of 8Bit-Nintendo-music with beats. Along with jumping and video-show. Were quite cool. Those videogame-scores from back then are anyway very catchy which took some time to get used to their music (esp. for those that are not so into that sound) but their melodies sounded really great.
