Mugwump's Geoffroy and Kolombo have been on a continuous roll. "Raping The World We Left Behind" may be a dead-serious track title and the tune certainly retains a level of dramatic appeal, but this is a true builder in every sense. Mugwump have an unsurpassed skill in gently rocking the techno/house mainframe with the sounds of the unexpected and certainly demonstrate this right here.

Brussels-based Geoffroy and Kolombo take you to the dark side of house music. "Fears Inc." sounds like a combination of an alternative soundtrack to Polanski's The Fearless Vampire Killers and mid-'90s Strictly Rhythm house. Mugwump help roll out a sanguine deep house track that builds up to a total frenzy, bloodcurdling screams included. "Nothing Without You" recalls the year 1988, when DJs at the Boccaccio Club fused EBM and acid house into new beat -- a highly energetic ancestor of modern European techno.

Mugguomp was an Algonquian word meaning "person of importance" or "war leader." Charles Anderson Dana, editor of the now-defunct New York Sun, gave the Mugwumps their political moniker, often portrayed as "fence-sitters," with part of their body on the side of the Democrats and the other on the side of the Republicans. However, Geoffroy & Kolombo refer to William Burroughs' drug-induced reptile weirdos from Naked Lunch. Mugwump's music is fat, warm & sexy -- classic house with new magic tricks.
