   I. Anna Ranger

   II. To start where someone else has stopped, to grip a sonic roadmap
   like a torch passed on during a never-ending electronic relay, to go
   above and below, above and below, above and under ground, is to be
   Columbus, Ohio’s Anna Ranger. One might wonder where this electronic
   torch is passed from. The answer lies in the history of electronic
   music, but it doesn't stop there.

   III. Taking stylistic cues from the Pet Shop Boys and Depeche Mode,
   Anna Ranger has sculpted and shaped a sonance that is solid,
   precise, and intoxicating. Add to that formula a variable mixture of
   English influence from eccentric artists such as The Smiths,
   Electronic, and Kate Bush. The end result is a deliberately crafted
   series of electronic pop opuses laden with heady, provocative, and
   thrilling chorus' well packaged into the 2005 Plastiq Musiq release,
   Above and Under ground.

   IV. Harnessing the quite elephantine analog bass lines and rhythms
   is only the first step in the pop music presentation of Anna Ranger.
   Inject 1 syringe of sorrowful sentiment and 1 syringe of punk rock
   "I don't give a fuck" attitude into the track-mark-ridden,
   tourniquet-laden, junkie arm of modern pop music and there you find
   yourself at an Anna Ranger live dance party. The listener is always
   a repeated victim of carefully constructed, yet ruthless paroxysm at
   the hands of Anna Ranger.

   V. In a market where music is constantly beckoning to do the
   thinking of the listener for them and where listeners eventually
   dull, relent, and decompose, Anna Ranger forces the listener to
   adhere to only one rule on the dance floor. Whatever one must do,
   one must always think for oneself.

   MORAL DiSCLAiMER: We are very aware of the fact that our releases
     contribute to the growing sale losses of record companies.
     Unfortunately our style primarily targets small, independant labels
     that need sales to survive.

     For these reasons we ask you not to distribute this release on public
     sites or P2P tools; if more and more receive their music from the net,
     artists and labels will have to face even less sells than nowadays.
     Please do not consider this release as a substitute to the original, but
     only as a way to check out and learn about new music.
     We absolutely do not approve of DJs or other individuals that earn
     money from pirated music - Don't let them get their hands on it!

     By buying the albums you like you disperse the guilt we feel by
     releasing this music - Enjoy the music and be fair with the artists!
     YOUR support is required to keep them financially alive and producing!
