100% yes

"Melt Yourself Down continue stirring their cauldron of jazz sounds with added essence of modernity ... The six-piece have retained a strong sense of the wonderfully free spirit improvisers they are on stage, but with Youth and Ben Hillier on production duties there is a more refined focus to their output. 100% Yes in turn deserves greater focus from the world at large".

"Their sound has shifted a bit; it's more inside, funkier, and dirtier. The frenetic dance music that sits at the core of the band's sound attack is ever present, but the out jazz takes a bit of a back seat to brittle, punk-inflected cosmic funk, Latin and Afro-Cuban rhythms, cumbia, and even Brazilian frevo offered with squalling horns, gutbucket basslines, and urgent yet often ecstatic chanted and call-and-response vocals".

"Having anticipated the new British jazz explosion's open embrace of rogue genre-fusions, MYD continue to mix and match with impunity, mangling Afrobeat, punk, dub and electronica ... Kushal Gaya's vocal hooks bristle with political fury (...) as polyrhythms jostle with George Crowley and Pete Wareham's brass riffs".
