Review: If you're ready to get down to some super smooth future funk, look no further than this bag of grooves from Fuselage. As a single, 'Three Seasons' does everything you want a new school breakbeat recording to do, with its crunchy melodies, hoppy organ patterns and natural organic drum loops. We are also blessed with a supersonic revamp from Jem Stone, who's 'Cigar & Bourbon' edit reforms the track's structure into a laid back, almost disco-style creation.
Review: It's about time Fuselage made a touchdown on Bona Fido and they've done so in serious style with this uber funky re-release of a classic by the name of 'Seize The Time'. From start to finish we are tuned in to big drum breaks and guitar leads, when you then couple these with subtle rave atmospherics and precise vocal slicings you are in for a real treat. This projects comes complete with three official remixes also, as Jem Stone reworks the track into a housey monster, Dirty Barry shakes things up with his fidget overhaul and the Sol Brothers revert back to the 80's with their Electric Boogie remix.
Review: Given that Jem Stone AKA Jem Panufnik was once the driving force behind the Finger Lickin' label, you'd expect this debut full-length to be crammed full of party-starting treats. It is, of course, though Panufnik wisely chooses not to go for the jugular straight away, instead showcasing a string of shuffling, mid-tempo grooves that gleefully join the dots between hazy house, hip-hop, blues, Balearica (the delicious "Sweatpea") and pitched-down funk breaks ("Hotdog Supreme"). When the up-tempo workouts come, they're predictably tasty, with the wild breakbeat house thrust of "Storm in a Teacup" and creepy and dense tech-house throb-job "Fake Ghost" standing out. Best of all, though, is the trippy, string-drenched downtempo soundscape "The Final Curtain".
