Call the Sessions a crossover or attempt ten-odd genres in a breath, Dominic B and Mark Yardley only give two flying fecks about making and remixing music to get the speaker-happy masses going.

Opening with Basement Jaxx's Jump 'n' Shout screamfare, mild and firey ammunition of breaks and nasty effects induce involuntary head-nodding even from the most sulky clubber standing in a corner with arms folded.

With no category to box the boys into, hip-hop and 2-step breeze by a track or two before Plump DJ-ish fat bass trips around some old skool bends with "Action". The Warrior's singles spit early 90s pseudo-rave on "Da Virus" with MC Moose injecting sporadic vocal headcharge throughout the 60 plus minutes. "Beaut Mot Plage" signal bits of funky house until the last comedown quarter slows to deep dreamy grooves that's telling you to recuperate from the earlier breaks-tacy pops.

Just like their namesake, the Stanton Warrior brand sewer covers - this goes underground and is indescribably filthy.
