The latest release from Mr Sizzle clearly finds him in one of his better moods. With the New Route EP there was a clear contrast between the natural warmth of the eponymous track and the rougher, darker edges of flip side tracks Intern and Backward Son. Freak definitely edges on the side of the former, its rolling break and deep chords giving it a real effortless sound. There’s perceptible depth in here and it’s a track that manages to be both subtle and simple at the same time.
