Review: Given Masters At Work's longevity and the seemingly bottomless depth of their discography, it's perhaps unsurprising that Defected has decided to make the veteran New York duo the first recipients of a second House Masters compilation. As with the first volume, the four-disc set offers a mix of well-known anthems ("To Be In Love", "It's Alright, I Feel It", "Mind Fluid" etc), classic remixes (an early rework of Debbie Gibson, an on-point house remake of Loose Joints' disco smasher "Is It All Over My Face", long-forgotten rubs of George Benson and Femi Kuti), and deeper selections (dubs of Chic and Neneh Cherry). There's also a chance to enjoy again some of the duo's lesser-celebrated early 2000s singles, including their brilliant tribute to Fela Kuti, and the "Our Time Is Coming" hook-up with Roy Ayers). Immaculate stuff.
