Sonny J - Disastro (2008)
Every summer since Big Beat took over Britain, a record like
Disastro pops up, neon-bright and dazzling with samples. Sonny
J's particular brand is nauseatingly effervescent, layering
perky drumbeats and processed jangle over the likes of Shirley
Bassey, 60s psychedelic group the Free Design and 50s R&B
starlet Donna Hightower. The resulting din is all too often a
mess of clatter and noise, regularly tune-free and joyless.
Its general tenor is also horribly dated, the aural equivalent
of a bottle of Hooch or a magazine with Liam Gallagher and
Patsy Kensit on the cover. The Go! Team and Norman Cook always
knew the trick with this formula was a killer melody.....
