Editorial Review:
At the vanguard of the disco-house movement which engulfed British clubs and hearts alike in 1999, Phats and Small made their name with productions that were unashamedly commercial and eminently danceable. It comes as no surprise then that the Brighton duo's debut album is resolutely upbeat throughout. Hip-swinging basslines and feel-good melodies are the name of the game here, with singer Big Ben lending his jubilant vocals to singles "Turn Around", "Tonite" and "Feel Good". Although they're never going to win any prizes for innovation (the string sample on "Music For Pushchairs" is brazenly pilfered from Armand Van Helden's "You Don't Know Me"), Phats and Small have wisely stick to what they do best and produced a disposable party album par excellence. --Ed Potton
