Description:
Number seven in the ever consistent Another Late Night series finds Frenchman Kid Loco at the helm with another fine selection of nocturnal treats. As ever, the emphasis is on quality rather than quantity. But with an impressive 23 tracks to choose from you thankfully get your fair share of both. Concentrating on a much more contemporary style than previous contributors such as Tommy Guerrero, the boy wonder pays only cursory attention to the oldie but goldie route, with Public Image Limited, Gabor Szabo, Harvey Mandel, John Lucien and Frankie Valentine providing the only pre-1990s support. Instead Loco heads down the route once
Number seven in the ever consistent Another Late Night series finds Frenchman Kid Loco at the helm with another fine selection of nocturnal treats. As ever, the emphasis is on quality rather than quantity. But with an impressive 23 tracks to choose from you thankfully get your fair share of both. Concentrating on a much more contemporary style than previous contributors such as Tommy Guerrero, the boy wonder pays only cursory attention to the oldie but goldie route, with Public Image Limited, Gabor Szabo, Harvey Mandel, John Lucien and Frankie Valentine providing the only pre-1990s support. Instead Loco heads down the route once marked trip-hop, favouring a sluggish, head nodding trawl through hip-hop inspired downbeats and bass-heavy personal favourites. But, what it may lose in variation it makes up for in the well executed mix, a seamless cut and paste journey through a host of long forgotten beats and breaks. From the Herbaliser's "Hard Stuff" and Aim's "Fall Break" to Up Bustle and Out's "The Domino Boys" and Tranquility Bass' "Soldier's Sweetheart". And that's just for starters. --Found Sounds
