Amuse Bouche is the chosen artistic alias of producer Tim Shaw, who debuts here with an expansive and quietly impressive five-track salvo. Wisely, Shaw has chosen to hit the ground running - with a little help from vocalist Lady Lady - with a killer cover of Kelis classic 'Acapella' which craftily re-imagines the 2009 electro-house hit as a squelchy, acid-powered nu-disco anthem in the making. It's great, as is the moody, synth pop-tinged intergalactic breakbeat excellence of 'Serendipity' and the bustling, Faith Evans-sampling electro-breaks shuffle of 'Pastiche'. Elsewhere, 'Take It Easy' is a cyber-sonic nu-disco number and 'Night Drive' is a chugging, synth-heavy soundscape of the sort that Italians Do It Better used to release all the time.
