Surf Instro-Spy-Lounge Review: Seks Bomba - Somewhere In This Town

Seks Bomba’s Somewhere In This Town is a unique fusion of your favorite surf-instrumental and spy thriller movie soundtrack bands. 

They skillfully blend excellent twang and instrumental using diverse methods, creating a truly one-of-a-kind sound.

What you will hear is a refreshing take on traditional surf, infused with modern technology to create a snappy and fresh sound. It’s like a cool sea breeze coming off the wake of a large wave, a musical wave that will surely excite your senses.

The vocals in Seks Bomba’s music are reminiscent of the background music in a James Bond flick from the sixties. Their original “It Takes Two To Tango” is a well-executed throwback, while their rendition of Bacharach’s “Casino Royale” and Mancini’s “Charade” would make any composer proud.

The instrumentals like “Matt’s Bossa” are excellent examples of the group’s ability to transport you to a tropical paradise. They use a sexy saxophone to create a sound that is upbeat and stylish, crafting a musical journey that makes you feel like you’re on a sunny beach.

I look forward to every Seks Bomba release. They have the knack for mixing it up by using all the styles available to them in the genre, so it never gets boring or stale. This CD is highly recommended.
