    CD has arrived from Amazon...eventually!!!

    Just re-indexing my SB server as we speak, time for a proper listen

    Edit; Just been through it once...excellent choice John, right up my street

    Why haven't I heard of these chaps before

    Superb musicianship, excellent dark funky grooves, great turntableism, magnificent cheesy organ

    I know it's going to get better with a few more listens, so I'm going to have to give it 5 stars, if there was a 4.5 I'd go for that, it's definitely worth more than 4 IMHO

    It's reminiscent of a polish band called Skalpel, on Ninja Tunes, so if you like this you might want to give them an audition too...

    Hey Will. I’m glad that someone at least likes my weird musical taste

    I already have Skalpel’s self titled album; interesting stuff.

    Ah, that explains why Marco made you a mod - you share more than just an interest in music - sadly it means I shall never reach that lofty position .

    Hi Nick,
    Yep, that's true, but so do an awful lot of others on this forum I seem to recall. That means it cannot be used as a selection criteria for elevation to the peerage (Mod status) as there'd be more Mods than ordinary members .
    So Mods appear to be selected from that very small (I hope) minority of members who like to brag about their cross dressing fetish. Pleb membership is my only option I'm afraid .

    Me personally, I like to rise above such frivolity. Someone needs to maintain some level of decorum on behalf of Team AOS!

    Music for both head and feet...there's nowt weird about that John

    RE. Skalpel their other album Konfusion is worth a listen too, although they do seem to have dropped off the radar a bit, nothing really since 2005/6

    Do you have anything else by MM&W? I see from their website they have quite a few more recent albums but the only stuff I can find on youtube is from Uninvisible...

    Hi Will
    MM&W have made quite a few albums, sometimes a couple of them team up with someone else and do a recording.
    This is an interesting album imo
    MM&W Last Chance To Trance. Similar in style to Uninvisible

    The Out Louder at the Bowery Ballroom is also worth a punt.
