Vertigo nicely moves among many of the threads in today's dance culture world. The party begins with "Chicago," a bouncy instrumental sporting a James Brown-funk guitar lick, and continues with the jazz-driven "Whatever, Whenever," featuring rapping by M.A.D. The DJs slow things down for the cocktail hour with "Dusk, You & Me" and "At The River."

Clearly, though, this album makes it statement with two self-assured Big Beat tracks: "If Everybody Looked The Same" and "I See You Baby." Both are out-of-the-box dance floor staples that thumb their noses at the trendies smarting from Urb-culture's peek inside the mainstream curtain. "I See You Baby," complete with the bonus Fat Boy Slim mix, would probably be consumed by Madison Avenue by now if it weren't for the naughty, incessant refrain: "I see you baby/Shaking that ass/Shaking that ass." Sly Stone would be proud.
