Review: For what is only their 12th-ever release, Rimini-based Italian label Duca Bianco bring us this four-tracker from hotly tipped Manchester disco/funk experimentalists Talking Drums. We're firmly in leftfield territory here, so if you were expecting immediately accessible mirrorball stomp, think again! Instead you get 'Other World' with its Afro drums, jazz organ and soul/lounge-style male vocal, the melancholic 80s-sounding torch-pop of 'Dolce Julia', the wonked-out sci-fi boogie of the dense, shuffling 'Voice Of Omicron' and the looping, summery Afro/tropical vibes of 'Monkey Key'. Dancefloors that relish a dose of the unexpected should definitely groove to this one.
