Allez les presales! Everybody's favourite Parisian party fiends are back, polishing up another batch of patchy pound bin finds and not-on-Discogs delights for your next summer soiree. Putting their orange-eagle eyes to good use, the LYO crew have trawled the crates of Europe and beyond for this sunkissed set, working the scalpel to the max to pack the dancefloor in arms aloft ecstasy. Our party starts with the kwaito groove of 'Avidiyo', a killer bit of late 80's Afro-action boasting synth marimba, alien bass blasts and life affirming vocal chants. Not only is this cut moving in the ants-in-your-pants/dancing-like-a-madman sense, but its Sting-on-safari emotion and clarinet solo could bring a tear to a glass eye. Cartwheeling between aspirational jazz-funk and afro-cosmic, 'Yanga Mbiwaa' makes its way to the heart of the party like a bewildered Parisian at an Ivorian wedding. As tumbling toms rumble like thunder on the Serengeti, an oddball exotica chant encourages the nearby wildlife to shake a tail-feather to the Club Tropicana guitars and buzzing synthbass. At last you have something to keep Quantum Jump's 'Lone Ranger' company! Last but not least comes 'Autoradio', a very well mannered monsieur living the French highlife by the sea and sun of the Mediterranean coast. Effervescent Afrobeat guitars and swooning sax dance over a rolling rhythm section of buoyant bass and 80s percussion, while a spoken vocal drawls in your direction and the girls ask if you're ok. It's only when the pinging, ringing, madly modulated bass breakdown bounds through your surroundings that you'll wonder who slipped what in your drink....
