Starting out with some dark, eerie keys over a pounding beat, 'Synth and Strings' quickly moves into full on thumping mode sounding a bit like Fatboy Slim let loose on a trance track.  It's cheeky, bold, full of energy and distinctive as it veers from the slightly disturbing opening to a more upbeat middle section.  It uses a very cheeky disco sample to bring the whole thing together and before you know it the dancefloor becomes a heaving mess.  Excellent and sure to be inescapable.
