Bang Gang is a project by Icelandic Bardi Johansson. Yet his second album mainly sounds French; not strange because he lives in Paris. His music can be compared to Zero 7 and especially Air.

Johansson himself sings and plays most of the instruments, but has also brought in guest

Something Wrong is an album that mainly evokes dreamy atmospheres and in that respect Bang Gang has certainly succeeded, and he is careful not to make everything sound too artificial. Johansson also has some sense of perspective, as evidenced by the funny Supremescover Stop In The Name Of Love. (IV)more
