The Basement Boys present Ultra Nate - 'Stranger Than Fiction'

(Wednesday June 6, 2001 3:26 PM )

Released on 04/06/2001
Label: AM:PM

Respect to big gay, 'Record Shack', high energy love-pop. Massive, humorous, and for over a decade now, Baltimore diva, Ultra Nate has been trucking out ecstasy-loon anthems from 89's It's Over Now, to 91's 'Deeper Love' to late-90s 'Free'.

'Stanger Than Fiction' is of the same class.

Hooky as Steps, formulaicly fromagey as 80s Madonna and as dance floor disco as Chic, there?s no messing with the girl.

Kicking off with a Tina Turner-esque 'Love is Stronger Than Fiction' we're at Studio 54 revisited. The next track, Ain't Looking for Love, boots off the sleazy disco with clean Chilli Peppers? Guitar and the hen night mood is set.

The ecstasy boy-band blinder, 'Desire' warms up the lobes to Ritzy club abandonment and from then on the versatility of producers from Attica Blues to 4-Hero, Lenny Kravitz and D-Influence take the mood over the collective genres of dance. Ultra smooth, like The Supremes, Shalimar or Sade, she's got us smiling again.
