I. Jordan's self-dedicated 2020 EP For You was a personal breakthrough as well as an artistic one, earning across-the-board acclaim for its giddy yet introspective channeling of influences such as French house, rave, and drum'n'bass. Watch Out!, the producer's first Ninja Tune release, works in a similar mode, providing high-impact club anthems that span a variety of styles, and taking inspiration from transit and movement, from crossing intersections to cross-country train journeys. "Only Said Enough" opens the EP with huge, walloping breakbeats and diva wails, fiercely setting everything off. "Watch Out!" mixes tough hardcore breaks and rave sirens with uplifting pianos and lush, atmospheric melodies, keeping you on your toes while shielding you from danger. "You Can't Expect the Cars to Stop if You Haven't Pressed the Button" is more straightforward, charging, and minimal, bounding along in forward motion, with sampled recordings from intersections adding to the track's restless feel. The Elysian "Feierabend" stretches loops that may or may not be strings, Mellotron, and vocals out over five minutes of a relentless pounding kick drum. "And Groove" feels simpler and more relaxed, revisiting the more French touch-inspired sound of For You's first two tracks, looping its sample about a perpetual groove over mellow chords reminiscent of classic deep house, but with at least a slight dusting of adrenaline keeping the energy level charged up. The EP seems to celebrate the joy of simply being alive and active, and maintaining a constant drive no matter what. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi
