How does a modern petunia stand out from the hanging basket? Does he go down the Pavement "writing songs while sleep-walking" approach, sonic terror dentistry or a little bit of "analogue synths go bloop"? Bitmap try all approaches. If Bitmap could change their name to The Beta Band, thousands would hail this as the album that finally confirmed their potential.(8/10)

Fitting neatly alongside the classic harmony-drenched summer sound of The Thrills, Bitmap offers an alternative that is equally seasonal. Alpha Beta Gamma is a delight. Basically it's the album we've all been hoping the Beta Band would make. Smart electronic noodling underpins old-school melodic pop that veers from easy listening to weird psychedelic workouts. As with so much frothy pop, there's a darker twist to the lyrics. (Pop CD of the Week - *****)
