    Every track on here is solid, and that's a feat for an electronic dance duo who can lazily fall into easy repetition for people in clubs who just want a constant beat.

    If the results aren't necessarily the kind of up-front and accessible electro that would appeal to their "Hustler"-adoring base, it's definitely an interesting shot at regrouping and concocting a few rapidly refined ideas.

    Whipping up a surplus of creeping, insistent sophistication--climaxing with ping-ponging head-wrecker 'Aspic'--you can once again envisage techno overlords such as Sven Vath dropping SMD, rather than daytime radio DJs.

    Delicacies proves that this aging duo still have the fire in the belly of their hard drive.

    Delicacies lacks the pop craftsmanship and euphoric electro of Attack and the singular outstanding tracks of Temporary Pleasures, never attempting to introduce vocals to supplement their evident ability to create an intriguing techno dance track.

    For a young, non-jaded Pantha Du Prince fan, though, this could resonate yet.
