Bassments - Jesper Lundegaard & Mads Vinding

Advantages: Songs
Disadvantages: Needs More Songs

...This is one class album. For everyone who likes some wacky, fun tracks then you will like this album. I quite surprised my self when I got this. I didn’t think I would enjoy it; I bought it out of curiosity and was really pleased! It has some top tunes and some great sounds on the album. The album starts out with its own little intro. It has a low sound and then you hear “Bassment Jaxx” in a deep voice. I think this is a great opener and it is really cool and leads onto some good songs… 1) Romeo This song is a bit annoying now. It is annoying because of the constant repetition of the words “Romeo” and “Let it all go”. It does have an excellent video and the base beat and tempo to the song is pretty cool. It is one of those songs that you either love or you hate. 2) Break Away... Read review

...This is Madness' third album on their first run on the music scene. It marks a slight change to the music of the previous two. The songs that you will have heard of on this album are slightly moodier ones such as Cardiac Arrest, and Shut Up. The album isn't crammed with classic Madness hits but then not everything they make can be fantastic. If you are a Madness fan then it's worth buying this one, if you're a casual kind of fan then stay clear, you might regret spending your money on it. It is however part of the special box set called The Lot which include the original 6 albums from Madness from 1979 to 1985.... Read review

Advantages: Fun, creative, grows on you after the first couple of listens. Breath Of Fresh Air
Disadvantages: Inversion maybe should have been cut!

...a little pointless, but I reckon there are worse ways you could spend a minute and leads nicely into a song I had never heard originally. I'm sure the Jam version sounded nothing like this though. This kinda reminds me of Groove Armada or Bassment Jaxx, big sounding drums and percussion, with a groovey little bassline, with some nice brass, and an interesting sounding vocalist. Not the best, but pleasant enough. This makes way for the simple perfect Just. Funky, sharp, witty and creative with suprisingly deliciously delivered vocals by Alex Greenwald (From OC theme suppliers Phantom Planet) It just sounds like it would be brilliant on a nice summery day, just like today actually. Amy is another where I haven't heard the original. But this version would make me want to hear the original, to compare. Next is the big surprise... Read review
