Paul Field, better known as Flip The Groove, makes a compelling return with his latest offering, "Dance With Me/ Love Your Body Take Control." Starting with "Dance With Me," one might not be expecting a darker ambiance. 

The track kicks off with blaring police sirens and assertive, hard-hitting beats that draw parallels to the likes of the enigmatic artist Burial. Notably, the vocals take center stage here, serving as the primary melody—the heartbeat of the composition. 

It's an intriguing choice, creating a sonic landscape primarily built upon vocals and electronic textures. While there are hazy elements at play, none quite take on a prominent lead role. "Love Your Body Take Control" unveils a richer sonic tapestry. It commences with commanding drums that exude a cinematic quality, setting a grand stage. 

The bassline in this track is impeccably smooth and harmonizes seamlessly with the percussion, crafting a silky and seductive atmosphere. The lyrics, although straightforward, function more like a captivating mantra. The vocal delivery possesses shades of improvisational free jazz, adding a unique dimension to the track's texture. Listening to both songs in tandem, it becomes evident why the artist opted to release them together. 

​The shared aesthetics and emotional resonance create a cohesive experience. Once again, Flip The Groove delivers an exceptional release that leaves us eager to explore more from this talented artist in the future.
