This release is that most unusual of beasts, a great house album. The tracks are excellently programmed, devilishly funky and on closing track Dexter, Villalobos manages to create a very mournful, poignant piece of of electronic music reminiscent (in mood if not the actual sound) of Stark Reality, the closing track on Rob Hoods classic Nighttime World Vol. 1.
