The first two albums by the duo of Nick Atkinson and Tim Stewart – Burning Fuse and Look So Good – were enjoyable outings, especially the latter where they broadened their palette beyond their horns with guests like trumpeter Finn Scholes, and singers Tami Neilson and Marlon Williams. But on this third outing they really stretch into new areas with synth beats, backing vocalists, Callum Passells on alto, singer Steve Abel, bassist/drummer Jol Mullholland and Scholes again.

There's a lot going down on this confident third album, not the least that they now also embrace as much serious comment (the title track, Put It Down, Full of Hope) as providing the pleasure principle. If they have somehow gone past you, this is the mature album with which to start your listening . . . and admiration.
