Crikey, thought I’d slipped into some sort of voodoo ray time warp there with a guy called Gerald. Not that I’m complaining because this is deliciously different, at least for the new century. And 3-piece Factory Floor are not new shavings off the block either having set up shop around 2005. Up to now they’ve gone the EP/single route but a self-titled debut album is out on Rough Trade in a couple of days. ‘Turn It Up’ is the intriguing opening track, all mood but unlike their fellow Londoners the xx they rely more on bleeptastic mannerisms. The result is an exhilarating sense of anticipation, the feeling that something wonderful is just around the corner and when it fails to transpire there is no disappointment whatsoever. Ooh-oo-hoo ah-ha ha yeah. KD
