The Stubborn Heart groove follows a familiar pattern for this 12" single.
Penetrate, a track from their self-titled debut album, is presented in four versions of which Sheffield's Walter Ego remix is the most beat-orientated.
The emphasis is on a sultry late night vibe with a hint of dub and a significant dose of romantic trauma : "I think I love you but I don't want to hurt you".
The duo's heavily chilled atmosphere is so steeped in melancholy that you wonder what they would do if a relationship ever went completely smoothly.

The only other track is Nighthawks which is a slightly funkier affair rendered more dance-friendly by neat percussive effects and a driving rhythm.
Party music for jilted lovers.
