Let's Party Like It's The 90s
"In some strange way, listening to 'Let's Party Like The 90s' is like being shoved into one of those 90s house parties. The drums may be crashing, yet they act like that anchoring "designated driver" keeping the pace. A bass circles the dancefloor, creeping in with some bold step. The guitar soars across like the lad people want to talk to, but aren't brave enough to approach – there's always one. Add Cardwell's rich vocals, and you finish things with the cheeky kid winking, grinning and upping the fun factor."
