Resident at London's Bugged Out, Lemmy Ashton delves into his own expansive collection of house, disco and electro to deliver the first ever release on his much awaited new label, ¶NC'. On opening gambit Strut, carefree female vocals remind us; "It's all about the rhythm, and the love." The former is easy to lock into, thanks to an undulating sequence of tasteful kicks and toms, while the latter follows, oozing out of the speakers and onto the dancefloor. Following on with force, icious' delivers on the promise of its title, blending a classic house sample with an admirably gnarly onslaught of gritty electro and relentless drums. The tellingly titled [1]urnin Up' marries an extravagant, vogue indebted intro with a shamelessly crowd pleasing piano jam that's pure peak time energy, bursting at the seams with tension and release. As if delivered from a sweatier disco across town, [1]reaker Breaker' begins in choppy, more idiosyncratic fashion, eventually collapsing into a similarly joyous vocal number, while never losing its offbeat charm
