Title: Do you like . . . ?
Review: In Full Effect is a super tight combination of drum machines, samples and rap. The vocals can be a little nice at times, but the music is the jam. What you'll find here sounds pretty different to what MC/DJ teams were doing at the time and is more musically akin to the cutting edge robotic techno pop of Kraftwerk and Art of Noise. The majority of the album is strong and aggressive save for the dreadfully lame love song Dear Tracy (yeah, thanks L.L.) and the corny but likeable Simple Simon, which sounds like a goofy olympics theme. The MegaMix at the end of the album is mind bogglingly well pieced together and in my opinion gets the slight nod over Mantronix's previous MegaMixes. This album is well worth re-releasing. Grab a vinyl copy if don't want to spring for the ridiculous prices the used vendors are asking in the meantime.
