By Jay M VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
After their long absence, 23 Skidoo have quite noticeably mellowed since their earlier days. This is no criticism, it's just the way things usually progress in a musical career.

So does it affect their music. A bit of yes and no. The power and the fury of their earlier albums may be gone, but it's replaced by a much more easier to listen to feel. This is no bad thing either. Throughout this album, touches of jazz, funk, industrial, dub, reggae and hip-hop all permeate.

'Freeze Frame' is the best track on this album by far.

What brings it together is it's approachability. It's by no means up to the high standards of the music on 'The Gospel Comes to New Guinea' but you have got to remember, this is a new stage in their career and it is time for a new sound.

This is the first release from these guys in fifteen years, and it's simply brilliant! It took a couple of plays to get into it (DO NOT expect the kind of stuff they used to do), but it paid off. Still funky, but with beautiful jazz courtesy of Pharoah Saunders and others. Late night music at its best. 23 Skidoo are back with a new sound for a new millenium, and this release can't be recommended highly enough.

One of the early well-known underground experimentals, who just in time skipped towards the hypnotizing rhythms of primitive music. Especially 'Kundalini' from the 'Seven Songs' record, already 20 and more years ago, is a tribute to primitivism in art and in real life.

Ofcourse 23 Skidoo started to make music which appealed to more listeners, even trying to seduce them with funkadelic hiphop in the mid 80's !! They just about succeeded before...they stopped alltogether !

I was SO happy to find out them making music in the new century, and even more happy to hear their funk based slap-beat as in the like of the best PIL years, accompanied by a more real rhythm-section. However, you have te get used to hear their big compromise towards the somewhat overdosed jazz-instruments. This album is overwhelmed by solistic trumpet/saxaphonic playing, putting down hard the no-more-centralistic-core of their hypnotizing rhytmic and atmospherical music. Jazzed away at times.

23 Skidoo is growing with their time. And I would wish for them to more and more (dis)appear in their own concept, which is SO great. It alltogether is NOT leaving my cd-player. And again they will be underestimated. Needed for them to do their thing. So many music-styles have enriched and left this planet, but the groove of 23 Skidoo should be able to keep on appearing as one of the great sins in life. Get this soundtrack into your system, and don't let yourself get overruled. Till the next best thing hip pops up.
