Slinky Word Class

  • Yes that's right. You did read it correctly in the genre section of this review. Slinky World Class here delivers the goods without an ounce of hard house. Mixed by Slinky residents Tim Lyall and Garry White, the World Class divison takes you on a journey where no other Slinky CD has gone before. Disc 1 begins with the dreamy Northface remix of 'Weird Noises' I won't go on to list every single track, but the cd does progress towards a techy/tribal tip that will have you locked in a groove. Mark James brings out the vocals with 'Hear Me' shortly followed by the funked up Diva melodies of Science Department's 'Breathe'. The Starcase remix of PVD's 'Vega' elevates the melody and intensity up another level, back into the dream like state, until you 'Exit' with Fat Harry. Disc 2 is my favourite. It's what I've termed the party cd. Beggining with the infamous 'Smoke Machine' mixing in an out of the first five tracks on top of the 'Dirty' accapella, this is a tapestry of hip swinging, booty shaking action! Work it baby ;p Following the house mayhem, the beautiful vocals of 'Mindcircus' bring on a state of soothing trance, but not for long as the funked up house kicks back in with 'Sirens' At first I thought my ears were teasing me with another mix of 'Smoke Machine'. Jan Johnston brings back the melody with 'Superstar' but it's not long before Lexy and K-Paul bring to the fore 'The Greatest DJ'. I've termed this the party CD because you can just imagine these Slinky boys teasing the dance floor with their mixing. Brilliant! It's impressive to hear the non-hardhouse side of Nick Sentience working with Tim Healy to make you 'Feel Surrel' Very fresh indeed. We are taken out with the uplifting synths of 'Supernova' and 'The way I like it'. Slinky World Class is pure class.
