They were a brilliant London duo while they lasted. But the artistic differences that split the Catz were a bit more extreme than those of the average duo - a near car crash in France that almost took out a writer for DJ magazine, one person drinking for four, fistfights in Ibiza, cross-dressing, and a few hundred too many Sundays spent at London's endless afterparty scene.
Thankfully, even after falling so far off the wagon you get run over by the wagon following, you can still come back. Dan vanished for a year, found love (and a lot of odd samples), came back, and this is the first of a set of new releases - the deep, wonky, and groovy Winterslow, with a shufflier Max Cooper remix. If you think you had the Catz sound picked, this one is going to be a serious surprise.
