Opolopo - Life's A Dance

In the collection of every DJ there's a special record. At the end of the night, when the venue manager gives them the nod, on it comes. It's the record so bad it's the musical equivalent of shouting “Will you lot just sod off and go home!!” Ladies and gentlemen, this is going to be that record.

It's evidently some sort of attempt at a fusion of dance, jazz, soul and funk and unsurprisingly it fails miserably. The vocals are ok, when there are any, but they're just completely out of place. Most of the rest of this aural assault is just synths and drums, and at over six minutes it's just too much. As a favour to the general public, each copy of this should come with a pair of ear-plugs!

In alternative warped universe this is probably a good record, and a CD with four remixes of the same song on might actually be an EP. This is a monstrosity of a record, save your money and avoid it like the plague that it is.
