Album Description:
Paco is the creative alchemy between Dominique Durand and Andy Chase of Ivy and friends Michael Hampton and Gary Maurer. Hampton cut his teeth as part of Washington D.C.'s seminal hardcore scene working with Henry Rollins and Ian MacKaye. Maurer is a member of the band Hem. The band's full-length debut, This Is Where We Live, creates evocative songs that seduce the listener. It's sultry & melancholy but with unmistakable attitude.

I really like both Paco and it's sister band Ivy. But from both artists, I prefer the more experimental dark tracks as oppossed to the pop hook & string riff style song.
On Paco, the best tracks (for me) are "Shaded", "Promises", "Never" and "Satie".
There are two tracks on an ep Paco released "System" and "Half Awake" these tracks are truly deep, dark and addicting. Check them out if you're on the same page as me.

I guess this is called 'dream pop' style. It was a breath of fresh air when I first heard this and quickly picked up the cd. not disappointed at all. The female vocalist has a soothing, sexy voice and the music is nice. can't wait for another release. a few members of this group are from Ivy and the style is somewhat similar. I prefer this style much more tho.

While a bit more electronic than Ivy, Paco still plays in the same space. Excellent song writing and - of course - Dominique Durand's beautifully ethereal voice. If you enjoy Ivy - do yourself a favor and purchase Paco and Brookville.

I feel compelled to add my review, as I bought this CD based on what I'd
read here... what a disappointment. Tedious, predictable, unimaginative "electro-pop". There's SO much more interesting stuff
out there, and I listen to alot. I found this CD remarkably disposable.
No offense...

Great album for a long relaxing car drive. Especially along the coast. More experimental than Ivy chooses to be and definately worth investigating. Superb opener. Do purchase.
