Paranoid London – Talk Dirty

Paranoid London land on cult NYC label Nu Groove with a four-track 12" that pairs vocal-led acid with heads-down DJ tools. The London duo's rough analogue sound feels at home on a label that's long championed underground house, and opener 'Talk Dirty' is classic Paranoid London: squelchy 303s, jacking drums and Josh Caffe's sleazy, commanding vocal at the centre. 'Revolution' flips the mood slightly-an instrumental groove built around distorted drums and warehouse-tuned synth pressure, designed for deep-in-the-night moments. Rounding things out are an instrumental and acappella of 'Talk Dirty', making this as practical as it is potent.
