Binker and Moses' Feeding the Machine (Gearbox) released in February found this incendiary sax and drum duo who do not have ''hold back'' in their vocabulary returning to their very best levels of creativity. The solution to full-on extravagance here was to change all production rationale by recording in the west country at top pop studio Real World and by adding a contribution from Partikel bassist Max Luthert with electronics and tape loops engineered by Hugh Padgham. Binker and Moses 2.0? Perhaps. Certainly Luthert and the handsome sound have helped add new life to the basic spark of intent and what a thrill it is and coming west London way.
