WEEDYMAN レコード& CD

Review: As part of the burgeoning crew centred around Essex imprint Issy's Groove, Weedyman is in a strong position to inaugrate the label's vinyl series with some slick and slippery house music that piles on the cheeky details and low slung funk without compromising on club-ready power. The title track cruises across the A-side with an acidic tweak to the lead synths, while plenty of interplaying synth lines and notes make for a limber groove to get locked into. Meanwhile on the flip Jim Jackmaster gets into a much more swung frame of mind as the snappy New Jersey shuffle of his remix pares the elements down into a raw drum funk with the odd sassy old-skool vocal or two.
