Pot Au Feu is 3 minutes and 13 seconds of "angular robot jazz crammed with incident"[1], "a pounding, fantastically rhythmical track, unsettling enough to have a speedfreak running to get the breadknives in the kitchen"[2]
This is three minutes and nineteen seconds of paranoia, virtually a rave track circa 1991 in its structure; a stattering, pounding teleprinter-paced bassline worthy of Timbaland as the tension builds, then a moment of chaos and crisis, an alarm-bell of a hook recalling the "panic / excitement" lines so prevalent in early 90s hardcore.[3]
Delia shows how she assembles part of Pot Au Feu on four tape recorders as part of the Tomorrow's World video in 1965.
