Kissing the DJ. I first
heard this track live when Julie and the bassist played at an open mic
night. I mentioned to Julie that I liked the song and she told me that "a lot
of people say that".
This really doesn't surprise me because
this is a top notch tune with a great hook consisting of the riff that runs
through the song. It it well played, well recorded and well sung. Enough
from me, listen to it yourself!
Cigarette song is another great
track from Djute, every time I listen to it I like it a little better. There
is a brilliant middle part that you REALLY must listen too. If you want a
copy, get in touch with the band, there are contact details on their Bristol
Rocks page linked below.
Roundabout is the slower track
from the EP. This is a complex & moody song that I feel that you have to be
in the mood for.
Fender livens up the atmosphere
with a good solid song highlighted by Julie's vocals at their most splendid. This is
kind of 'Joan Armatrading with a twist of Alanis Morrissette'.
The only thing that let this Album down
is the packaging. The song content is excellent, the playing is excellent
and the singing is excellent. Djute, go out and get the bloody thing
packaged properly. These songs should not be wasted, get the artwork sorted
and promote your excellent work!
