Format: CD album
Label: Lot 49
Released: October 12
Instrumental in combining techno, house, breaks and electro to create ‘tech funk’, Lee Combs’ third album I big on slamming big room grooves, but still manages to inject variety and personality into the formula. The opener, ‘Control’ features the belting vocals of Katherine Ellis, ’Detox’ boasts a genuinely surprising breakdown alongside wriggling acid and ’Blue I’m Singing’ owes as much to echo and the Bunnymen as Chicago or Detroit. Often nodding back to the past - see the monstrous rave chords of ‘Right Now’ with Uberzone - but with its sights set very much on the future, this is as ingenious as it is infectious.
