From the Hip

Released

Right from the slowly unfolding opening track “The Process,” an almost sweet dreamy build of a song, it was clear that Section 25 had found a new way to create their intense music. The audible embrace of New York-based electro and other dance sounds seemed to unlock something in them, as songs like “Reflection” and “Program For Light” showed. The unquestionable highlight, though, was “Looking From a Hilltop,” which became a major 1980s underground dance anthem, Jenny Ross’s voice a serene complement to Larry Cassidy’s.
