The Phat Skinny
Tongue 'N Groove have puttogether a remarkable mix of rhythmic and harmonic flavors on an album that that draws from pop stylings of the past but decidely looks to the future. Groove-driven and R&B-based, replete with samples, loops and beats, this album incorporates elements of techno, drum & bass, soul and light jazz in an ingenious mix of dance-oriented vocal and instrumental tracks. Driving vocal lines propel the powerful funk of "Human Highway" and "Get Your Self Respect Together." Deep grooves inform the disco-inflected "Live Your Life" and the rap/jazz mix, "When It Feels So Real." The gentle mood of "Jet To Heaven" is in contrast to the aggressive tone of "New York Free-Style." A perfect example of the bands marriage of the old and new is the brilliant re-shaping of Carol King's "It's Too Late." Progressive, electronic funk and soul with a Motown heart.
