Jojo Effect – Smarter
Review:
It’s hard to believe, but it really is a whole year and half since we last heard from Jojo Effect. This time round on the 18 tracks on offer here (some are remixes), we encounter less of the electro, but more of the swing heard on previous releases. The overall effect is a smorgasbord of jazzy lounge styles that hark back to the 1940s with a little 21st century fizz, like the housed up Charleston jive of “Rockin’ The Blue” and the Morcheeba-esque “Hollywood”.
