 http://bayimg.com/eAKgBAaCE You either love or hate Fatboy Slim. Personally, I am still waiting for him to apologize for the abject Big Beat atrocity that was ‘The Rockafeller Skank’ (yes, I can hold grudges for decades!). But at the same time, you cannot deny Norman Cook’s flair for a pop hook, hence why his famous remixes for the likes of Cornershop or Groove Armada are somehow still standing the test of time. For proof of his ongoing talent at A&R-ing, look no further than his Southern Fried imprint, gladly purveying us with mainstream brattish house and poppy, semiprecious electro-pop moments on a regular basis. ‘Southern Fried & Tested’ is the label’s latest double anthology of some of their most recent and not-so-recent cuts, mixed by Cook himself (under his Mighty Dub Katz guise) and the label’s own underrated Cagedbaby. I could say the compilation has “guilty pleasure” stamped all over it, but to be fully honest, there is nothing to be seriously embarrassed about on here: commercial, big-room house rarely sounds so shameless and enjoyable. CD1 sees Cook going for the label’s most instantly recognizable and famous tracks (e.g. Van Helden’s ‘Hear My Name’ and his much-loved ‘My My My’, Mylo’s remix of Elton John’s unlikely dance hit ‘Are You Ready for Love’, Red’s ‘Release the Pressure’, Kurtis Mantronix’s ‘77 Strings’) while opening and closing the whole thing with Space Cowboy, thus turning the mix into an unconcealed, albeit maybe a bit too predictable and safe for some tastes, populist ride. Those looking for the label’s slightly less-known stuff will head for CD2, on which Tom ‘Cagedbaby’ Gandey skillfully crams almost thirty tracks into about one messy hour. In a dance world where sounds and sub-genres are out of fashion before even seeing the light of day, it is actually more than nice to hear again, for example, the Andrea Doria-produced ‘Bucci Bag’ and ‘More Lemonade’, two of my very own favorite dance singles in recent memory: funnily impudent, they sit perfectly well next to Heavy Rock’s brassy ‘I Just Want to be a Drummer’ or Touché’s more jockish cuts such as ‘She’s at the Club’, ‘Calling my Name’ and ‘The Body Clap’. Then, with The Presets’s remix of Cagedbaby’s ‘Hello There’, originally released in 2006 as a single, Southern Fried has a truly gorgeous electro-pop gem on its hands: those plaintive opening synths and melancholic lyrics could really melt the heart of even the most cynical skeptics and label’s detractors altogether. Weirdly enough, turns out it seems Southern Fried might have a key role to play in the actual néo-pop-electro-house-nü-rave renaissance the British dance scene seems to be going through (again) these days, having one foot in the pop charts and the other on the Turnmills dancefloor. But no matter what you think of the label’s owner himself, it’d be silly to deny yourself some genuine fun, as showcased on this compilation, because of some old unresolved issues you might or might not have had with The Housemartins.
