The latest single from Rob Da Bank’s Sunday Best label, David E. Sugar’s ‘Party Killer’ defies the grey skies with a spot of sunny indie dance pop. Slightly louche vocals with a pronounced Estuary edge – ‘I liked you betaaah’ – slide on top of a funk-inflected assortment of bouncing electo beats with a light-hearted sense of style that promises good things from the upcoming album. As well as ‘Party Killer’s radio edit, we get the requisite album version; forgettable remixes by Disco of Doom and Adam Smith; and the unexpected treat that is the full-bodied, instrumental-heavy ‘Sunday Best Wig Out Dub‘. In addition, there’s B-side ‘Travel Light’, which is more of the same only not quite as engaging – still pretty good, but definitely the junior partner on this disc. Okay so, he’s trying a bit too hard to be a cheeky, chirpy London geezer, which might wear after a while, but ‘Party Killer’ leaves you in no doubt that David E. Sugar also knows how to make a summer floorfiller.
