2 out of 5 stars What the Funk?!.......2004-05-23

There are probably quite a few of you that remember the hits "Horny" and "Sex Bomb" where the latter one was together with Tom Jones. But who actually knows anything about this funky dance group? Mousse T are yet another french group if i'm not mistaken. They are very soul and funk influented and this album is a great mix of it together with dance rhythms. There are guest artists on almost every song too, apart from Tom Jones we'll find Emma Langsford that sung "Horny" but also "Fire" and a new Mousse T single that is out now. The songs with guest artists are often soulish, the one's without are instrumental but also quite soul inspired. That sound good doesn't it? especially if you like dance artists like Superfunk, Bob Sinclear and Cassius that have been mixing the genre's and making some really hot dance albums through the years, the problem with this particular album however is that the versions of "Sex Bomb" and "Horny" are not the one's that were played constantly on the radio. Those are very slow jazzy kind of songs i don't know what has to do with dance. I don't know either why the up-tempo vserion aren't included here but i suppose those were the reason why anyone would even look at this album at the first place. There's a remix of of Fine Young Canibals "Johnny Come Home" a good jazz song in "Negril Blues" that could had become a hit with a remix, my favorite song however is "1 Touch" with Rosie Gaines. Overall this album is not what you might think it should have. It's not bad if you like to hear a band with many good influents such as jazz, blues, funk and soul. The instrumental songs are fun for example, but it's a big dissapointment to not get the charts versions of "Horny" and "Sex Bomb", so it's not recommended for dance fans in particular.

    3 out of 5 stars Surprisingly well produced, but at best a novelty item.......2003-03-26

    I guess that one shouldn't be surprised that someone with as much production experience as Mousse T can put together a very professionally, and even innovatively produced swing/funk album (which is what this is), but for some reason at the end of each track you are a little surprised that it didn't trainwreck at some point.

    The stand out tracks are definitely the swing re-work of Mousse T's own club house hits 'Horny' (which has great instrumentation, and is sung pretty well by a sultry-voiced singer who has a surprising talent for phrasing) and 'Fire'. 'Sex Bomb' is also particularly well arranged. I can take or leave the rest, however.

    In my opinion, 3 stars at best - there's novelty value in hearing a house DJ putting together swing versions of well-known tunes, but it is limited. And, hey, didn't Frank Bennett do all this 5 year ago?
