Intrigue

One Touch

Backatcha continues to delve into the back catalogue of British 80s soul outfit Intrigue, a combo born in the Britfunk and boogie era whose independently released records have long been sought-after by disco diggers and record collectors alike. Having already reissued the band’s best-known tune, 1982’s ‘I Like It’, they’ve now turned their attention to a more overlooked gem: 1986 single ‘One Touch’. Glossy, colourful and effortlessly soulful, it’s a fine chunk of polished, club-ready 80s street soul with nods to electrofunk. Flipside ‘Touch Down’, a more extended affair, is an alternative, largely instrumental dub mix that adds layers of effects to key elements while stretching out the synth-heavy groove.
