Review: Following on from their successful hook up with 2020 Vision, nu-disco heroes Crazy P have now joined forces with the Classic label (how has this not happened before?!) and here we get the "Truelight EP". Spacey retro soul balladry gives way to filthy cosmic funk on "One True Light" and "In My Hands" is nasty Padlock EP-style disco of the highest order. Hot Toddy (aka Chris Todd of Crazy P) remixes the latter into hypnotic acid and band co-founder Ron Basejam turns the former into chugging, sun-warped Balearic boogie.
Review: Crazy P drop their ninth studio album in a 23-year career. One of these days, they'll surprise us - either by dropping a thrash metal album, or just by making a record that isn't very good - but that day's still some way off, and for now the Manc trio are happy doing what they do best. And let's be honest, they do it better than most! Danielle Moore's voice seems to improve with every passing year, and if you've ever liked a Crazy P album it's hard to imagine you wouldn't like this one. Lyrically there's a new political edge, but it's the sumptuous, shimmering disco-Balearic grooves that'll win you over first.
