This is a rather enigmatic CD that will make some sense once you read the notes - though you will be left wondering, who IS this composer, ezgirl? But even without going this deep, you can enjoy this collection of audio snippets as the sublime novelty item that it is: kindy goofy and kinda sexy at the same time - like some toys some women keep in their nightstands.
For lovers of the show The L-Word, nothing could be finer that to be aurally transported to the lesbian island (otherwise known as L.A.) with these slick mixes and heavy breathing.
There's a heavy dose of the group BETTY's trademark irony and humor here. They provide the theme song for the second season while at least 2 of the 3 band members are named as musicians on nearly all these cuts. Hmmm ... wonder what happened to the third girl.
