Parralox could use a clone or two....
Aural Addiction have interviewed John von Ahlen, producer of Parralox.
Here's an excerpt:
Which other genres of music would you like to try? Which ones would you like to avoid, if any?
In my recording career I’ve covered most styles, but at the moment I’m looking to explore a more acoustic/folky/electronica sound, which I’m doing in my side project “The Sound Of The Crowd”.
I also have an itch to produce some R&B, more along the vein of Afrika Bambaataa v/s Kraftwerk v/s Roxanne Shante v/s Missy Elliot.
Some electro R&B is so pure it drives me crazy, especially with a kick ass rapper over the top. Actually, I do have my eye on a rapper in the UK. I’ve asked management to reach out to her, so we’ll see what happens.
To be perfectly honest though, I wish I could clone myself and work 24 hours a day 7 days a week because there are really so many styles I want to explore.
If I had to pick one to avoid, it would be heavy metal/death metal. I’ve done enough of that in my time. I love bands like Tool / Muse but I don’t think you could consider them heavy metal. I don’t anyway.
And I love Ozzy Osbourne, so go figure!

Babysue reviews Recovery
Babysue website has reviewed Recovery, our 5th studio album.
Here's the review:
If you loved the keyboard driven techno sounds of dance bands from the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s...chances are the folks in Parralox are gonna knock your socks off. The band is the project created by Australian producer John von Ahlen. This album also includes the vocal talents of Roxy, Ryan Adames, Amii Jackson, and von Ahlen himself. Parralox is already a favorite among lots of music fans around the planet. And after spinning this album we can certainly see why. These groove-oriented tracks absolutely command movement. The songs feature solid 4/4 rhythms with perpetual beats and nice big meaty keyboard sounds. There's a lot to chomp into here...fourteen intoxicating cuts that'll have folks on dance floors around the world sweating up a storm. Our favorite tracks include "In The Night", "Headhunter", "Physical Attraction", and "A Little Respect". This package also includes a nifty art booklet that is just too cool for words.
