Young Slugabed (he's a mere 22 years old...) returns for a brand new EP of material,
and rather good it is too. Moving away from the Ninja Tune mould of yore, "Sun Too
Bright Turn It Off" might be instrumental hip hop, but its as jerky and electrified
as anything emerging from the West Coast. More experimental than FlyLo and less
indebted to Dilla than most of his contemporaries, Slugabed seems to be experimenting
with something very new here. It's one part chiptunes, one part French electro house,
one part US rap history and one part UK bass music. Somehow this all fits together,
and the resulting collection is commendable.
