Editor's review
If Kraftwerk harmonized like the Beach Boys, the result might sound something like this Athens, Ga., duo. Blending '60s sunshine pop with early-'80s synth pop, Private Lessons creates a warm, sensitive soundtrack for robots' daydreams.
Biography
Conceptual pop duo Private Lessons consists of Jesse Atchison and Darren Tablan, both ex-members of the Minty Fresh new wave band Floraline. Emitting a sound reminiscent of old video games and early '80s coming-of-age films, the pair's 2004 debut record, False Alarms, was recorded in a small loft in Atlanta, Ga., using vintage keyboards, drum machines, and layered Beach Boys-style vocals. It is the first release for No No Records.
