    Time Out Chicago / Issue 178 : Jul 24–30, 2008
    Album review

    Elaste Vol. 2 Space Disco

    Compiled by Tom Wieland (Compost Records)

    You’d be hard-pressed to find more obscure dance music in one place than in this collection, worked up by Austrian DJ/producer Tom Wieland. The collection blazes brightly, with more of a giddy vibe than the first, delectably druggy edition from DJ Mooner. By today’s standards, it strays way off course—never quite defining a genre. But it goes into some interesting places: Latvian space disco from rock band Zodiac, Afrobeat in the form of Tony Allen’s “Nepa Dance Club,” and a kooky remix of Rufus and Chaka Khan’s “Ain’t Nobody.” Tracks from Wieland’s own plastic disco project Panoptikum seem slightly out of place against cop-show themes and Italo boogie—but that’s forgivable when the overall attitude is so generous.
