Amsterdam-based producer Olivier Boogie doesn't put out many EPs, but what he does release is usually superb. Certainly, his previous edit-heavy 12" singles on Whiskey Disco and Lumberjacks in Hell were top notch. This debut for Fingerman's Hot Digits imprint is white hot, too. Opener "Switch" delivers chunky, loop-heavy thrills in his usual disco/house fusion style, with hooky piano lines and choice vocal samples riding a sturdy, cut-up groove. There's a looser, more reverential tone about the humid, horn-heavy South American disco vibes of "Funky Tropical", while "Cyclops" and "Ooh La La" explore deeper - if not less floor-friendly - territory. Fingerman offers his own take on two of the tracks, with the eyes-close slow house flex of his "Slo-Grind" rework of "Cyclops" standing out.
