By all accounts Love On My Mind was a large-scale club hit for the Freemasons, though in narrowly missing out on the top chart slot, it denied the composers a life time's supply of beer at their local - the Freemasons' Arms, funnily enough. Well, if they've struck another bet with the landlord in the meantime he'll be having a few sleepless nights once again, as the boys have gone more up tempo for the follow-up, avoiding 'similar record syndrome' in the process.

Watchin' has well-constructed string parts, a bouncy piano line, suitably euphoric vocal wails in the background, a hook you could hang your coat on and some cracking lyrics dispensed by now regular singer Amanda Wilson. These are lifted directly from an early song of R'n'B vocalist Deborah Cox and revamped for discerning house music lovers. Remixes from Walken and Motivo funk it up and add more power respectively.

With a beat that draws a strong parallel with the current Defected/Positiva house music fayre of the moment, Shapeshifters fans will also be well catered for.
