It was still a showcase from a master and great fun to dance to some sounds from the underground. And to those who missed out – rent a copy of Groove.

The whole album seems to work itself up to closing track One Horse, an eight-minute epic and one of the highlights of Menomena’s entire catalogue.

The release is well worth a listen for any fan of groovier, deeper techno and house, however, putting the slower mix on the second disc is a fundamentally flawed choice.

For anyone seeking a thorough rundown of a burgeoning sound, this is a must listen.

For those who worship at the altar of Bob, this release is par for the peerless course; for those less fervent followers, there is still much joy to be found here.

This is well-wrought music that, sadly for a genuine talent and notable figure of the uplifting trance scene, fails to make its mark.
