UK release date 05.05.2008

This is the second album from this great Dutch group and on the ever-consistent label ‘Social Beats’ (also Dutch), who, currently, can do no wrong. Let’s make no bones about it, this album is aimed straight at the dancefloor and hit’s the bullseye.

Dj’s with no patience will get frustrated because there are so many tracks one could play 'Day By Day', 'Perugia', 'Max Roach', 'Broad Minds' and the funky ‘What The Bleep’) but it’s also varied enough, tempo and style-wise, to suit the home-listener too.

As you’d expect from the Dutch – with their great jazz heritage, the musicianship is outstanding, but there must be a special mention of the singer Linda Bloemhard, who shines throughout the album.

It’s quite an achievement for a night to last five years in the volatile and competitive world of Central London clubbing. It’s even more impressive when it doesn’t sell out musically in order to achieve such a status.
