Weird Uncle Betty - the name alone hints at a very odd release, and the title of the album (In Porn We Trust) reinforces this immediate assumption. So what's in a name...? A solid release. This is a beat oriented body moving collection of tunes laced with samples based in a sexual nature. Structurally, sonically, and texturally, this resembles Norman Cook's output as of late. In fact, "Wet'n'Shiny" uses the drum loop from Fatboy Slim's "Everybody Needs a 303". These tracks are for moving the body, but they're not club-ready, which is a nice factor. The big-beat tends to get repetitive after a while, which is common in most big-beat groove oriented tracks, but there is enough sonic variation between the tracks to appease the groove palate.
