Padded Cell - Faces of The Forest


The men behind Padded Cell are Richard Sen of Bronx Dogs fame and Neil Higgins who was a member of the Dirty Beatniks and together they have come up with a sound that straddles that line between electro, jazz, funk, disco and techno for a sound that is uniquely theirs. They have just released their new album Night Must Fall that has more than a slight No Wave feel to it but this track, Faces of The Forest, which was the b-side to Moon Menace a year or so ago, that is to me their strongest work by a mile. It is incredibly energetic and one that could decimate dancefloors given half the chance and a record that could work as well in a Prins Thomas set as a Steve Bug set. I defy you to try to not dance to this.
