Transfusion M & Michael Ferentino get down with retro-churned tunes that smack of 1970s funk. "Sly Heart" and "Revenge of Sly Heart" are the singles (for the upcoming, digital album, I Will Skill Again), and man, do they ever tingle, but it's more than the set's Curtis Mayfield/Isaac Hayes grooves and Prince-kissed lyrics that turn me on.
For one, "Sly Heart'"s vibe brings to mind the films of my youth. I'm talkin' Superfly, Shaft and Three the Hard Way. That's right, "Sly Heart" springs from a cinematic, urban hub, but one that's principled and smart, an anti-hero's anthem that saves the day when "the man" won't, with an oh-so-cool, lovey-dovey spin that's hard to shake. And trust me, you won't wanna shake this one. Like the tastiest candy, it's designed for infinite consumption.
"Revenge of Sly Heart" is the TNT recommencement, which rises the former's flames to even higher perches, with guitar rifts and bassy shifts that mirror a steamy, bedroom scene. Without question, it's a sequel of the best, "B-side" order.
