REVIEWS
DMC Update review - 22nd October 2007
NICK HOOK - 'THE FUNKY MUZIK' (JEEPERS!)
Nick Hook is back on new label Jeepers! which he co-runs with Lee Morrison
(Wallop, Alex Lee). Based on a mantra-like vocal ('The Funky Music'), the
original of is a groovy affair with a slight dubby feel, a bouncy electro
b-line, robot bleeps and an eventful structure that keeps you interested all
the way (also Funky Dub). Hook's First Life partner Martin Sharp provides a
progged-up re-rub.
