The last time we saw Rocksteady Disco was at the 10th Birthday Party almost a year ago to the day so it's a welcome return to Detroit's finest by New York's finest, Jkriv and doesn't he adapt well: 'Adaption' EP is 5-track answer to all the goings on in the world.
We know that in the world of the motor city, your big trucks are Rocksteady Disco's main man Peter Croce along with Eddie Logix (he of 'Flight Risk EP' - see review HERE), Blair French and Heidy P.
It just so happen's Razor 'n' Tapes Jkriv, as recently seen with Megatronics on 'Intuition' (see review HERE) slips in and on 'Adaption' slips in some Dilla-esque flavas in 'Green Street Lament' and 'Vibetown' before we move onto typical RSD teritory with boogie disco dancefloor 'Total Pleasure' (Ed. one for Hectic's 'Packet of 3' mix?) with the big hand-claps and synths warm-ups.
All must haves in themselves but wait for the combined double header of 'Adaption' and 'Adaption Dub' which moves the EP into realms of a double buy out: throbbing like a train with heavy pecussion with cascading strings and keys, it's a huge track (x2).
Don't forget Megatronic's EP 'The Truth In Gospel' came out the same day (see review HERE) and I've still got Soll Power All-Stars 'Nyah-Rock' (see review HERE) in my DJ bag but I think you'll agree with the press release, "gorgeous picture sleeve and cut loud to vinyl, 'ADAPTATION' is a must have."
