Lazy Dog is London's premier deep house night, a "real music" club run by DJ Jay Hannan and Everything But the Girl's Ben Watt. Documenting the rise of this Sunday social, Ben kick-starts the party with a heads-down set featuring lush strident grooves such as "That Day" from Julien Jabre, a generic standard made better by the a capella version of his own "The Future of the Future" laid on top. Not that we need the reference, however, because the mix which then unfurls is enough to convince any doubters of this man's absolute faith in the music. Although the rhythm rarely alters beyond a steady 4/4 axis, the flavors spread on top are infinitely more varied, with gospel, jazz, and blue-eyed soul melting easily into the mix. Hannan is more Latino in spirit, upping the pace with fiery percussive classics such as Negrocan's "Cada Vez" and exotic jazz-funk flora. All in all this is real house music--no filters, no Vocoders and, thankfully, not a single drum roll in sight. --Paul Tierney

Everything But the Girl's Ben Watt and DJ partner Jay Hannan return with more of the deep house they mixed to dazzling effect on the first Lazy Dog disc. Modeled after the program from their weekly residence at London's Lazy Dog social club, the double-disc Lazy Dog 2 finds the duo energized and dripping with deep house attitude. The duo's interpretations, which are more svelte, elegant, and modern than classic house, include ubiquitous handclaps and cymbal splashes met with salsa keyboard riffs, squawking saxophones, steaming organs, and sped-up vocals (on Peal Orchestra's "No Win Situation" the singer sounds like a prepubescent Michael Jackson). Both DJs confirm their tastes here; Watt indulges in lustrous mixes of vocal stars like Lucy Pearl, Sade, and Sunshine Anderson, while Hannan gives props to movers like Benjamin Diamond, Andy Caldwell (the man behind Sounds of Om, Vol. 2), and DJ Sonic (though he also sneaks in '80s pop star Kim English). The tracks pile-drive along in party mode, never skipping a beat but offering plenty of variation in style, making for a worthy addition to the Lazy Dog canon. --Ken MicallefAlbum Description
Ben Watt (EBTG) and Jay Hannan have finished mixing the follow-up to last year's Lazy Dog double mix compilation CD. Twenty tracks feature on the new album, ten mixed by Ben, ten by Jay.
