"A Moment Of Truth" tolls with an ominous bass and synth exchange, leading into clear rounds of conga-led percussion, circa 2009. A tightly coiled bass slap throws a fresh and funkier slant on things, before waves of cheerful Rhodes once again pull the rug from under your feet. It’s a trick recast on B-side "Let Me Do Yore." Although a more leisurely pace is established, a cleverly gated stab, and purposeful square bass catch the wave of a menacing groove. A cannon spat synth is shot across the frequency range while a beautifully pinched snare provides a perfect counterbalance for the parts around it. Once again though, the floodgates of melody open and the track becomes awash with synthesis, diluting the energy but not the ear candy. Untitled could almost be considered as four fine tracks. It just so happens they come all wrapped-up in two.
