“Now when I say ‘unh’ one time, you say ‘unh.’ Ready? ONE TIME, UNH!”
"Fun. Music. Remember when the two of them went together, back in the days before everything had to be cool? Nah, didn’t think so. But rumours of that ancient tradition have clearly reached The Transatlantics and they’re doing their best to resurrect it. The groove they’re investigating was first laid down in the sixties and seventies by some of the tightest funk bands around, and this lot are fairly close. They’re relaxed, confident and absolutely sincere. They dress smartly and really couldn’t give a stuff about being hip. And that, as we all know, means they probably are." - Gigwise.com
