With Jamiroquais sixth studio album, its evident that theres not much change afoot in Jay Kays camp since he last released a record four years ago. However, for what its worth the change that is present helps Dynamite to sound better than their last couple of records. While the disco is thankfully dialled down a little bit than on recent Jamiroquai releases, its still a tad over-represented, and those who have balked at the slick production sheen on Jamiroquais past music wont find anything to change their minds here. Still, "Tallulah and the excellent "Seven Sunny Days In June are evidence that Jay Kay still has it and was the same person who recorded Emergency on Planet Earth way back when. But the apparent need to play musical genre chairs on nearly every track ultimately does this record in.
