| | BBC - Dance Review - Martin Solveig, Sur La Terre |
 | | Granted, the follow-up single, "I'm A Good Man", with a vocal that oozes of the rawness of James Brown, is equally laced with funky retro Hammond organ riffs, and should maintain his support from within the club market. |
 | | This is typified on tracks like "Mr President" and "Madan" - numbers ripened by the sounds and flavours of the African continent; the latter also featuring the musicianship of Salif Keita - widely credited as the creator of Afro-beat, of which, Martin is clearly a fan. |
 | | Still in his twenties, Sur La Terre is a particularly mature album, showcasing Martin Solveig's ability to juggle from the disco-pop of his recent success, to the complex and intoxicating rhythms of the third world. |
