Album Review: Coldcut - Only Heaven

It was nearly 30 years ago that Coldcut invited us on their "journey into sound".

Today that journey continues with this EP laden with hefty contributions from veteran London MC Roots Manuva and relative newbie Roses Gabor. Better known for their cut'n'paste, sample-based mayhem, Coldcut explore deeper territory on the title track, with a touch of cinematic strings, lullaby glockenspiel and a bitter slab of ground level politics, whilst Creative is a surprising deep house cut that goes to show the best journeys are unexpected ones.
