Seb Fontaine: "Hooked On Junk" EP

Peculiar selection of tracks here, clearly from a fan of The Police and pretty good value with six tracks crammed onto one disc.

A-side comprises the Judge Jules-esque mixes. All three are based on the similar percussive breakbeat. A1 is a painfully slow tempo percussive house track with a funky beat to it and "all that junk" vocal sample. Probably the most vocals of all six tracks. A2 moves more towards dub from vocal, and is a stepping=stone to the A3 track, which is all percussive apart from an odd organ break three quarters of the way through. This is the best track of the six in my opinion.

The B-side mixes all sample The Police in one way or another. B1 and B2 are fairly dreamy, laid back house tracks sampling from "Roxanne" B3 is a reggae mix of "Walking on the Moon" that works quite well but is so short it's practically over before it's started - mix with care! ;o)
