Review
Mukatsuku is hurtling towards its 100th release but ahead of that comes another vital and hand-numbered 7'' featuring a brace of tunes taken from the Resolution album from back in 2003 by Sidewinder aka Reading-born Glasgow resident Alan Bryden. 'Stanway's Revenge' you might recognise from Groove Armada's Back To Mine compilation and here, in edited form, it is as lush as seductive as ever with the smoochy horns and gentle grooves. On the flip, 'Plain Song' has late-night chords making a sombre vibe while muted trumpet, organic percussion and classy strings all embellish the mood.
