12″ – Mofo
Arriva ‘The Hotness’ e per tutti son dolori con Yolanda ed i Ragga Twins (a proposito … ho visto davvero, oppure ho solo sognato, una quarta di copertina dei fratelli Destouche, su ‘Straight No Chaser’, a pubblicizzare una specie di compilation antologica?). Il merito
dell’operazione qui in questione va in ogni caso al sempre attivissimo Jimmy Mofo, nelle sembianze dei Beat Assassins (assieme a Wooz), abile nell’agitare sequenze ariose e groovy, gentilmente stradaiole e grasse. Esattamente quello che ci vuole sotto la luna dell’estate e senza preoccuparsi troppo se siano impasti adattabili anche a classiche selezioni dancefloor. Personalmente preferisco il retro, ben cadenzato e meglio incisivo, con i giusti elementi melodici ed effetti, a 132 bpm saettante ed ondivago, intriso di sciabolate digitali, synth ‘alla Ramirez’ e vocal calibrati. In ogni caso gran qualitá.
