Coloma

by Andy KellmanColoma is the duo of vocalist Rob Taylor and producer Alex Paulick. The Englishmen reside in Germany and signed with Mathias Schaffhäusers Ware label for their debut album, 2002s Silverware. They returned the following year with the phenomenal Finery, recorded at Conny Planks studio and also released on Ware. The album was a brilliant headfirst dive into previously unchartered waters, a cross between minimal dance music and sophisti-pop. Two years later, they released the relatively organic Dovetail on Klein, featuring a horn section and several other guest instrumentalists. Outside of the group, Taylor leant his voice to Schaffhäusers cover of Icehouses Hey Little Girl, and Paulick has played bass in Kreidler.
