MEANDERTHALS - Desire Lines, Smalltown Supersound

A meeting of minds from Rune Linbaek and the Idjut Boys, Meanderthals' Desire Lines is an album that takes Balearic disco and draws it into the more organic world of live band jams and groove-driven jazz club jaunts. The first track, 'Kunst Or Ars' (oh do stop sniggering) even throws some steel drumming into the equation, adding to a breezy wash of sound that's purpose-built-for-summer. Venturing into more dancefloor-oriented terrain, 'Andromeda (Prelude To The Future)' throws some suitably warm, bulbous bass lines in amongst the track's sheeny, phased guitars and surfeit of bongos, while the equally uptempo 'Lasaron Highway' stays faithful to its title, making a perfect soundtrack for getting lost on a nighttime drive. On a slightly more worrying note, 'Collective Fetish' does sound rather too much like it might be Alan Titchmarsh's make-out music, regurgitating queasy listening guitar licks and meandering, willfully lukewarm basslines - it's possibly one pastiche too far, but still raises a bit of a chuckle whilst also being very well-put together. A worthy side dish for anyone who's currently lapping up the new Lindstrom & Prins Thomas album...
