The first (if you follow the cat no's) of two new UR records released this week. This has Bileebob supplying some wigged out, techy electro in that lo-fi Detroit style. "Call Me" has a broken, electroid groove that harks back to Aux88 or Direct Beat coupled with a soulful, kinda sung, kinda spoken word vocal. Elements distort and flange in a mechanical fashion as the pulsing electro beat marches on. Music for robo b-boys. Onto side B and who remembers "Fix My Sink" by DJ Sneak? "Get A Phone" takes that brilliant formula of repetitive, wigged-out groove, crunchy drums and a quirky, story-telling lyric over the top. Both catchy and infectious with a layer of humour and quirkiness. Long live the Resistance!
