Seminal techno/house album by Beaconsfield's finest

"From the opener 'Groovy Feeling' you can hear this is going to be a great album. More mature and knowledgeable in their musical tastes, Fluke were never going to make a boring techno/house record that others have. (See Underworld's 'Beacoup Fish').Dance orientated enough to get the younger generations listening but also musically complex enough to get the mums and dads out there to take notice, this album showcases the best in techno, house, trip-hop and ambient dub.'Electric Guitar' will always be at home both on the stereo and on the dancefloor, 'Slid' remains a great pop song and 'Top of the World' builds and builds as only a Fluke song can.Get this now, you'll always find time to listen to it."

Ignore the release date; this is now

"I am normally scared off by release dates as old as this one, but I think _SWOMW_ actually sounds *better* today than it did in 1993. It's a fantastic CD. The eclectic mix of aural and vocal styles make it a favorite in the office. Accessible, but worth repeated listens. Worth the import surcharge."

Simple but elegant!

"I heard rissoto first, and became completely obsessed with it... Fluke is just an amazing band, like Underworld, but different... Anyways, Six Wheels on my Wagon is definitely a more minmalistic album, in my opinion, or at least, a less varied album... the songs retain a consistent mellow theme through the whole album... not like the gritty peaks and sleepy valleys of Rissoto.. i love both of them, they're both awesome."
