| The Perfect Timing label is an eclectic one but even by their standards, this five tracker from San Diego really does take in a wide range of tuneage. Side one kicks off with ‘My Life Is A Walk In The Park’, a perky house/disco beaming like the sun does on a hot day, before the ruffneck Amens of track two, ‘You Can Only See Me After Dark’, slam us into completely different territory, with the Bukem-esque Rhodes piano proving a nice counterpoint to the rugged beats. ‘I Go There To Look At The Spurce’ takes us off on another tangent, a broken beat with sped up hip-hop credentials, a double bass and some echoey dub effects filling up the sound spectrum. ‘But My Name Is Not Bruce’ takes a speedy, trip hoppy groove into hypnotic, loopy, spaces, while ‘I Am The Scariest Man At The Park’ proves not only that our man is a dab hand at an original title, he also has a keen sense of drama, closing the EP with some nicely haunted house piano and general eeriness. |
