In the Now [Audio CD] Mutiny UK

Mutiny UK's Dylan Barnes and Rob Davy have fulfilled the promise of previous singles with their full-length debut, In the Now. As the opening "Midnight Lady" sees the studio machinery setting out the Mutiny UK mission statement to the whirring, buzzed, and bleeped background, club favorite "Secrets" rolls out an inescapable filtered bass-line groove. Throw in a scattering of schizophrenic cuts, which range from the Flat Eric dance-floor skanks of "The Virus" right through to Davy's bizarre love walrus theme, which somehow jumps the fence to land in the arrangement of "The Pornstar," and the resultant album is an ever-diverse, uptempo disco rocker. --Kingsley Marshall
