With a name like Discotouch, one would expect this outfit to deliver tracks packed with tongue-in-cheek funky pop goodness, and The Code doesn’t disappoint. The title track has an almost annoyingly catchy chorus that I can guarantee you’ll be singing for hours after hearing. The EP consists mainly of remixes, which should please fans of the Electro Pop genre that is making waves in the music industry at moment, and should sound familiar to anybody who frequents Hobart’s Syrup nightclub. Far from being monotonous, the remixes bring variety to the EP, and, especially in the case of the club mix, improve upon the radio edit greatly. The male vocals on The Code are reminiscent of TV Rock’s Flaunt it, and fans of TV’s will find much to like here. The female vocals drip the track in infectious disco goodness and bring a lighter mood to the song. Far from being a collection of cold house tracks, a sense of frivolity permeates the entire EP and draws the listener into Discotouch’s quirky soundscape.
