Pest - Pat Pong - Single Review

Pest
Pat Pong
They don’t mess about at Ninja Tune and they don’t need to when they’ve got people like Pest continually delivering a quality product time and time again. Pest seem to have grown up a bit with their new album, moving further away from the sample heavy sets to a more controlled hyperactivity.

Pat Pong is the first release from the ‘All Out Fall Out’ album and it really delivers.

The funk and jazz quota is filled to bursting and very importantly after seeing the effect when played in a club, it’s incredible when loud. ‘Solid Groove’ (aka Switch) has also had his fingers in this pie by remixing a version that goes a long way to transporting you to the Balaerics end of the spectrum-cucumber chilled.

The remix by Tru Thoughts’ Diesler holds no bars for the jazz set.

Also on this release is a bonus track called ‘Chimps’ which has been described as being – a little like Scott Herron on E having sex with a large breasted girl with a GSOH. Not wrong.
