Tim Deluxe’s debut, THE LITTLE GINGER CLUB KID, has house tracks cleverly disguised as pop songs. Catchy and smile-inducing, tracks like “Heavy Weather” and “Less Talk More Action!” have a pop sensibility backed with that kick drum to get you moving, augmented in no small part by Terra Deva’s powerful and sexy vocals. There’s quite a bit of funk and silliness on “2kool 4skool” and “Little White Ship,” though the former doesn’t show a lot of variation. The stronger tracks are definitely the vocal ones, since they have more focus and don’t grow stale as easily: “It Just Won’t Do” is a Latin-tinged little hustle with a lascivious thrust, while “Battle” is a little less earthy and a little more dreamy. “Mundaya (The Boy)” merges South Asian vocals with a house rhythm, with toe-tapping Bollywood-approved results. There’s also the dancing in outer-space track, “Choose Something Like a Star,” which drifts out into the void on a filtered vocal and a spoken-word sample from what sounds like a New Age tape. The first half of the album is the stronger, but the fun last throughout.
