Big Soup, the first album released under Luke Vibert's own name, has a very noticeable and sometimes very annoying theme: space travel. When the theme is overlooked, the songs are all pretty good. Vibert's lack of real innovation keeps the album from 3.5 or 4 stars; if you know his work, the album is pretty predictable. Overall, though, it's not bad.

This EP/single is the most funked up hip-hop I may have ever heard. I cannot begin to describe how awesome "Dance Music" is; "Do Unto Others" is pretty groovy, too.

This album took me a while to get used to, but once I came around I loved it. Plug uses long intros, b-movie samples, and strange sounds to compile ten superb tracks. Not as upbeat and funky as Versatile, but maybe a little more emotional and complex.

I don't know about this one. It's pretty weird, even for the Lukester. The beats are all over the place and the melodies are colder, more electronic sounding. "Cheesy", "3.41", and "7.10" are the best tracks, but in no way are they Vibert's best. 1 & 2 are definitely brilliant works, but they're also hard to groove to.

Plug plays more funk here than in D 'n' B for Papa and adds elements of groove, jazz, and dance to top it off.

"Lovely" is a nice 3-track compilation of Wagon Christ tracks. The video can be viewed here.

The first single from Tally Ho! doesn't have the humor as the album, but it has some great funky tracks. "Filthy Drummer" samples James Brown's "Funky Drummer".

As you can see by my ratings, the first half of this album is excellent. Actually, it's almost perfect. I don't think it would be possible to make the first seven tracks any better. This is the epitome of good electronic funk 'n' jazz. After the first seven songs, the albums trails off a little, not having quite as much focus or intensity. Although I still gave the album four stars, Vibert does not do the album any favors with "Pull My Strings" or "Intermission." Just skip them when you play the CD.
