As Coloma, Rob Taylor and Alex Paulick are without a doubt one of Cologne's most exciting musical duos. Fusing elements of electronic music and pop, the two friends, originally hailing from Britain, have made a name for themselves both in and beyond the German city for their unique combination of songwriting and sound-design. Their 2002 debut album '
Silverware' released by
Ware records was very well received by critics for its fresh sound and an appearance at the Sonar festival in Barcelona helped Coloma build an international audience. Their most recent album '
Love's Recurring Dream,' released by
Italic, is a pleasant and informal musical trip, full of strong vocal performances and well crafted songs that play very well together and move in all the right places.
