Smart Kid : City Taste (Hear No Evil)

PROMO REACTIONS from the first release on hear no evil HNE 001 DJs, Magazines, Radio, Web
Cat.No: HNE001 Release date: 30th May 2005
A. LAZLO FEAT DAN THOMAS NOTHING BETTER B. SMART KID CITY TASTE

Dig the jazzy workout on the B side, which has nice warm up/bar vibes. Ben Watt (Buzzin Fly)

WOW...City Taste vocal edit is even better than the A!! Keep it coming HNE Leo Elstob (Faith)

City Taste Vocal Edit is my choice of a great release. Will be on various radio playlists Illl be doing over the next months Larry Heard (Alleviated Records/ Various / USA)

Really feeling the Lazlo and 'City Taste Vocal' is getting spins as well ! Great production too. Ashley Beedle (X-Press 2)

Love the pianopella such a soulful voice. Playing it out lots Robert Owens

HNE001 will be a hard debut release to follow for this new stable, but when we learn that Robert Owens is next in the pipeline, it does offer up some sort of optimism. The featured vocalist on Nothing Better features London Community Gospel Choir member Dan Thomas, who sounds like a vocal cocktail comprising of Sylvester and Byron Stingly. The press blurb has hit the backing track flava right on the head, think bobbling analogue bass, a la Closer Than Close by Rosie Gaines youll get the picture. Add superior male backing vocals that smother the cut with a thick glossy coat of soul and a seriously jazzy keyboard break out and the results are like a rush of Dipipanone Hydrochloride. The Pianopella demonstrates Thomas gospel roots in its purist form, as the track is stripped back to an awe-inspiring vox and piano melt down. Smart Kid City Taste is a two mix affair also. Enjoy yet more jazzy keyboards on the instrumental, whilst are soul desires are taken care of by the Vocal Edit. A label that is off to a phenomenal start, you got to get this. 4/5 DJ Mag, Issue 90 Reviewer Yogi Haughton

the A-side really does it for me. Keep up the good work, Rainer Truby (Compost / Various / Germany)

Thanks for this - A1 is beautiful. A2, yes very Rosie Gaines! B side - very nice Miguel Migs vibe. Not the kind of the stuff I normally review but do keep sending me tunes! Giles Smith (DJ Mag)

The first release on London based label, Hear No Evil, sees Lazlo featuring Dan Thomas and Smart Kid share the honours. The first track, Nothing Better from Lazlo just lets loose, with vocals and a live piano, in true jazz club style. The following mix, with zany keys and deep oozing beats rolls out in true old-skool style, Dan Thomas at his finest. Then we switch to Smart Kid City Taste dropping a deep bassline into the sound, with more superb keys and wandering chords to fill the track out, keeping it cool and jazzy all the way. The final mix, adds a female vocal to affairs, lifting the disco, happy-clappy vibes and leaving you on a feel good tip having enjoyed 4 fine tracks.Untitled Music www.untitledmusic.co.uk
