 | | This is an eight track EP, but once you get past the seven inessential cuts - some half-finished joke loops, various short sound effects interludes, and Reinhardt Voigt's competent but psychologically remote remix of 'Voodoo Brisant' - then it's the original version of 'Brisant' that justifies this record. |
 | | Brimming with sexual swagger, 'Brisant' is powered by kick, snare and on-beat ride cymbals - no offbeat hats, none needed - and a galvanic, attitude-laden two note guitar/noise/synth riff. |
 | | The dark, whispered vocal introduces mystical shades to what is essentially a rough-and-tumble leatherboy track with one of those kinky, rubbery, lubricated basslines that is so essential to good New Beat. |
