Product Description
Connoisseurs of deluxe dance-pop, seductive electro anthems and gold-plated disco grooves - lend me your ears, Andy Bell releases a brand new album, Non-Stop. Non-Stop, co-produced and co-written by Andy Bell and Pascal Gabriel (S'Express, Ladyhawke, Debbie Harry, Kylie, Little Boots) is a lavish 10 track collection of exquisite dancefloor confessionals from one of the most acclaimed and beloved singers in British pop. Non-Stop features forthcoming single Call On Me, and Honey If You Love Him, a duet with and written by Perry Farrell (of Jane's Addiction fame), a huge fan of Andy's voice who suggested the alliance. Although Andy's long-running partnership with Vince Clarke in Erasure (recipients of Best British Group at The Brit Awards) remains very much a going concern - since the release of 1986's debut, Wonderland. The singer's second solo album provides a liberating platform for his more clubby, nocturnal, disco-glam side. He has even purposely changed his vocal register and style for much of Non-Stop, putting clear blue water between his soulfully electronic solo voice and his gleaming, poppy Erasure work.

Andy's other side August 9, 2010

*** 1/2
With "Non-Stop," Andy Bell continues to show how his solo work is the yan to Erasure's yin. (Or maybe it's the yin to Erasure's yan. Whatever.) Erasure's music is whimsical, with soundscapes that are often innocent and childlike, inhabited with Andy's androgynous, emotive voice. Andy's solo material seems to be more conventional modern disco/dance music, with consistently higher beats per minute, and more of the sexuality and grit that coincide with club life.
It's good, though. Less original, but the quality is still there. Similar to Kelis' last album, Andy's voice is so heartfelt that it keeps the songs from ever sounding too mechanical (as a lot of dance music does). And the production is really pretty good (think "X" era Kylie Minogue or "Confessions" era Madonna). You would listen to an Andy Bell album on the way to the club, or on the treadmill. Erasure's music is better suited to before bedtime.
 Non-Stop... Uber-CD July 21, 2010

Andy Bell has seriously outdone himself. He burst onto the scene as the lead singer for Erasure and has continually upped the game with every collection.
Electric Blue was phenominal and I didn't think he'd ever top that album.
Non-Stop is easily the best CD he's recorded! It's at once relevant and catchy. The songs stick in your head and MAKE you want to listen to them over and over. There's one "ballad" on the CD and I normally skip over ballads... Pop singers should sing upbeat pop... not soggy ballads. However, Slow Release is just strange enough, and the words so personal, that it made me stop and play it again... and then again. It's the one ballad on a pop album that I don't skip over!
Lyrically, he's always been far above any other singer. His words stand alone as prose, but when put to the catchy syncopation and quirky synth arrangements, his phrasing creates whole new levels to the words...
It's one of those CDs to which I will never tire of listening!
And if Bell ever reads this... Keep recording... NON-STOP! No time off... No vacations! Get back in the studio now! We need more more more!
AWESOME... July 11, 2010

This CD is, as the title says, "non-stop" dance...love it how he brings his artistic electronic pizzaz to music...love it...
 bad production, thin songs July 9, 2010

Über-compressed to the point of squeezing out the dynamics and subtleties in both the music and Andy's voice. Sure there's a target genre, but the little life there was in the songs have been sucked out completely by over-production and dynamic compression leading to nothing but listening fatigue. Perhaps better as a remix album or B-Sides compilation. Electric Blue hit the mark much better than this.
love this cd July 7, 2010
