Lovers of the Stockport sound should be prepared to dig deep and deeply dig the inaugral Ninja release from Mr. Scruff’s longtime cohort Treva Whateva. Following on from releases for labels such as Skint, Palm Pictures, Tummy Touch and Tru Thoughts, the South Manchester mantle is definitely holding firm as Trev turns his miniscule attention span to matters Latino.

First up "Dance Class" recounts the tale of Cedric Coalhole and what happened when he invited ‘a couple of old friends from Brazil’ along to Stockport’s Senior Citizen’s Tea Dance at the Town Hall. Fragile limbs a flailing, this is the sound of the over-65s throwin’ down heavy...

From Stocporto ‘tis but a short northerly jaunt up to Cuba, where "Havana Ball" takes up the reins, highlighting big brass, beats and bass in a style cheekier than a bag of buttocks.

Our bonus third nugget takes us back across the Atlantic to the misty fjords of Norway. What lives under a bridge and makes scarey noises? Correct! Trev and his Amiga - who pay homage to their’ river-dwelling monster of choice on the musty, crusty "Troll".

So there you have it then: 3 styles out of many, plenty of drum but no hum – an alternative to the alternative that’s the same, but different.

Expect more from the "Singalong" man soon...
