"Luck Be a Weirdo Tonight is Fila's fifth full-length, marking yet another shift in its alchemical approach to music. It's easy to keep up with the tongue-in cheek song titles ("Do the Hale-Bopp," "Pollo de Palo"), but quite another thing to get a handle on what it is they do musically. You can't sum Fila Brazillia up with a short phrase or half-baked genre grouping, probably because the duo's grooves are so entirely immersive, you can't and don't want to deconstruct them..." read more

"When I first played this album I thought to myself I don't have to listen to this more than once to tell anybody it is sheer brilliance, although I have listened to it more than once.

"Fila Brazillia are back with some top funky chill-out gear to follow the wondrous Old Codes: New Chaos. And while the same - sublime blending of jazz, soul, funk and gentle acid surrounds the lazy breaks, 'Mess' sees them flip the script and get a little loose and, - just occasionally, a little loony riffs about beats, this album they're bigger, phatter, chunkier than ever before..." read more

• A) Slacker - 11:10

Artwork: Mule

"Slacker is a slow winding coil of harmonium synths, a barely beating pulse rate of near-death ambience, while the second B-side track, "Subtle Body", is barely there at all, the merest, most delicate flatline tremor of piano. Austere and intimate solipsism from an underrated group."

"There can be little doubt that this is one of the best dance music albums ever made. Released in 1994, the debut album from Fila Brazillia was launched into a world before big beat and trip hop took hold, but after the first flush of Orb and ELF-inspired ambient. Coming after the initial chunky Leftfield-style house of the first Pork releases, but before the spliff took hold and Pork got stuck into their current down 'n' easy groove we now all love so well, this album is truly unique..." read more
