It’s become Mennie’s calling card to consistently deliver dancefloor oriented grooves that surreptitiously tease, then grab, then seduce then pound the senses into disco submission. ‘Reels Rebel’ is the choice cut, pulsing with Masters At Work flavoured duck or ‘Everyday’ beats and a funk-fuelled bassline high roller. Filtered synths and crunchy and crisp beats pin it down for tinny hi-hats and whipcracking snares to trample all over. ‘Haus’ is a more subtle treat with warm, delayed synth pads, clicking syncopated beats and a deep, mellow bassline that rolls then smokes like a fat cuban cigar. It’s really quite lovely. But then you expected that anyway.
