01 Here we go - Intro Scruffienne typique, donc parfaite.
02 Sweetsmoke - Electro-jazz discoïde, dancefloor filler, comme on dit. L'album part sur les chapeaux de roue (passez-moi l'expression).
03 Beyond (feat. Seaming To) - Mr Scruff goes soul, une première tentative dans le style avec chanteuse. Pas mal. Un peu chiant mais pas mal. Ça détend un peu en concert entre deux furias electro, et ça fait un peu d'animation sur scène...
04 Shrimp - Premier single évident, un peu trop même, mais finalement autant écouter des singles un peu faciles de Mr Scruff à la radio que le dernier Mirwais qui remixe Daft Punk qui reprend Madonna (Cassius Edit) ou un truc dans le genre... Et puis si on s'y tient à la version album et non au radio edit, on se retrouve vite dans du n'importekwa Scruffesque ultra-abusé parsemé de soli absurdes parodiant Jimi Tenor version jazz-rock 70's, et c'est ça qu'est miam.
05 Come Alive (feat. Nico) - Un second track chanté!? Mr Scruff s'ennuirait-il désormais seul avec ses machines et ses platines? Ent ous cas, on sent que le gusse arrive à maturité et commence à composer de vraies "chansons". Bon, nous on préfère quand il se gave de samples, de scratches et de breaks, mais apparemment aujourd'hui il faut aussi des tracks pour Gilles Peterson & co., plus langoureux, plus BBC...
06 Shelf Wobbler - Retour aux sources electro, aux cascades de piano disséminées, aux breaks syncopés, aux samples ludiques, "Oh yeah"!
07 Giffin - Track electro primesautier rafraichissant mais qui fait un peu remplissage... Mr Scruff aurait-il écouté un peu trop de broken beat façon West London?
08 Valley of The Sausages (feat. Seamin To, Sneaky & Moss) - Oh le beau melting-pot! Un scat très adapté aux loufoqueries Scruffiennes, un beat jazzy en forme de valse de rue, moultes samples et 5 minutes de bonheur.
09 Champion Nibble - Ah! Un bel hommage au rare funk 70's cuivré à souhait et tight comme du bon Galactic, voilà qui satisfera tous les funkateers en mal de grooves suitants. Avec une très légère pincée de Roger Rabbit, bien sûr.
10 Come On Grandad - Bon là c'est certain, Le Scruff s'est imprégné du son Bugz in The Attic, Afronaught, Agent K, I.G. Culture, Laws Of Motion, Main Squeeze et autres People... Retranscrit à sa sauce c'est plutôt très intéressant, mais pas encore franchement abouti. Le prochain album ne va pas être facile à réaliser, et ça ne sera peut-être pas pour tout de suite...
11 Vibrate (feat. Braintax) - Pour les enfants, au petit-déjeuner musical (comment ça vous ne donnez pas de petit-déjeuner musical à vos enfants vous?), un bon bol de hip hop for toons, il n'y a pas mieux pour bien commencer la journée. Attention, vos enfants vont bientôt vouloir faire partie de la fanfare de l'école, avec leur casquette à l'envers et leur pantalon quatre fois trop large. On vous aura prévenus.
12 Ug - Petite ritournelle electro débilitante pour jeu vidéo, amusante dans le cadre de la fin de l'album.
13 Ahoy There! - Outro Scruffienne. Mr Scruff repart sur son bateau avec son fromage, ses saucisses, ses boucles d'oreilles, ses poissons et autres baleines pour de nouvelles aventures...
