Saint Etienne were associated with the "indie dance" genre in the early 1990s. Their typical approach was to combine sonic elements of the dance-pop that emerged in the wake of the so-called Second Summer of Love
(e.g. samples and digitally synthesized sounds) with an emphasis on
songwriting involving romantic and introspective themes more commonly
associated with traditional British pop and rock music. Early work
demonstrated the influence of '60s soul, '70s dub and rock as well as
'80s dance music, giving them a broad palette of sounds and a reputation
for eclecticism. Years later, The Times wrote that they "deftly fused the grooviness of Swinging Sixties London with a post-acid house backbeat".
