0512. Red Snapper
Our Aim Is To Satisfy

This was a nice surprise indeed! This act's very disparate genre-hopping doesn't water down the sound, but makes for an enjoyable hour caught deep in the headphones.
Mostly instrumental, with some vocal ovelays, they navigate dub, jazz, funk and well, okay, disco, to make a leftfield album with beats that rival the best.

Their background in the acid jazz scene makes itself remembered when The Rough And The Quick starts, as it's an air of house surrounding it (also a definitive air of sex). But, with the groove of Shellback and the denseness of The Rake (I swear - if you plugged this one into any standard DJ-equipment you could probably use it to tear down buildings), this makes me want to want to delve deeper into their discography.
Thumbs up for Red Snapper!
