Snatch Raw Schallplatten & CDs

Review: As the title suggests, this fine four-tracker is a kind of partner release to Riva Starr's recent album Keep Me On The Dancefloor. It boasts a quartet of cuts, three of which started life as improvised studio jams with collaborators. Australian producer Close Counters features on two tracks: the jaunty, piano-rich, percussion-heavy and Latin-infused summer joy of 'Jinga (Part 1 - Extended Mix)' and B-side opener 'Novolight', a fine slab of sun-soaked organic house that sits somewhere between vintage Italian house and the 21st century disco of Dave Lee. Elsewhere, Naples Bassolino guests on the samba-house magic of 'Jinga (Part 2 - Extended Mix)', while 'Vai Vai (Dub Mix)' is a thickset, mind-altering loop-house pumper.
