Review: Following successful collaborations with Yuksek and Channel Tres, Hamburger Records regulars Polo & Pan join forces with the mighty Red Axes. The headline attraction is title track 'Mumia', a bass-heavy bounce through mutant Afro-house territory featuring hallucinatory, echo-laden horn sounds, wonky electronic lead lines and an infectious groove. Fittingly, both artists provide personal interpretations too. Polo& Pan successfully re-imagine it as a sun-soaked, effects-laden Balearic bouncer with a jaunty-as-anything, reggae-influenced beat, more horns and sun-splashed melodies, before Red Axes take it into druggy, early morning, acid house-with-added-percussion territory. Also worth a listen is Sunoco sporting bonus cut 'Desperado', a low-slung, mid-tempo, dub disco influenced shuffler that's as positive sounding as they come.
