Review: Midnight Runners are a boogie-obsessed duo from Indonesia whose releases and electric live shows have led to a deal with DJ Nelue's label, Groove Democracy. The Heat U Up EP is the first fruits of this hook up and it's impressive stuff. Boasting four slick slices of early '80s sequin-funk, it's hard to tell what's an edit and what's a live boogie jam - the best of which includes the raw, throbbing guitar stomp of "Mint", the power drums and synth washes of "Make It Worth" and the go-go meets Jam & Lewis bass jam of the title track.
