AKA Vladislav Delay, in house mode! An album compiling three 12" (for a total of 6 tracks and 76 minutes), it spikes and sputters, with lots of skipping -- not skipping CDs, but hop-skipping rhythms. Delay's pretty, dancefloor French-style disco/house even has whispery, sultry R&B vocals most of the way through. A populist record with an underground, distorted sound that unfolds around the edges and in deep dub tones, the beats sometimes wash out to ambience and murmur, like water on ink. Think Moodyman, Basement Jaxx -- deep house that snags the listener on multiple levels: head to heart to feet. [RE] (September 20, 2000)
