Four slices of disco-dub heat focused on the Heads label out of South Africa -- a sister 12" to Gumba Fire (SNDW 124CD/LP). William & The Young Five's "You Turn Me On" is a meaty, classic early '80s disco jam. New York's JKriv takes elements of the vocal and dub and reworks them into a condensed dancefloor winner. Sofrito's Frankie Francis gives Adaye's 1980s track "Turn it Up" and the Manyane cut "Thabong" the cut-up treatment, focusing heavily on the spaced-out weirdness of the dub versions. The set ends with "Picnic" by the mostly instrumental studio outfit Starlight.
