Ironic techno satire? Is that an oxymoron or simply a redundant set of terms? It seems rather pointless to lampoon party music for being vapid, yet Pay TV makes a go at it with decent enough results. It's certainly much more likely to hit its intended target than, say, Laibach. Anyhow, even if the high-minded concept doesn't appeal, hopefully the Håkan Lidbo produced beats do.
