The Diplomats of Solid Sound are back with their 5th full length, and if the last album was their senior effort, with What Goes Around Comes Around the band has officially graduated! Once again mixed and edited by Freestyle's boy wonder Adam Gibbons aka Lack Of Afro and featuring The Diplomettes on vocals, the cuts included here are a strong showcase of the growing maturity and sophistication of the group. From the sing-along chorus of opening track B-O-O-G-A-L-O-O, to the smooth soul number that gives the album its title, the uptempo Back Off, or the instrumental groover Bailout, What Goes Around Comes Around draws on a variety of styles but always keeping things soulful and funky! The vintage sound of The Diplomats has been fine-tuned by almost a decade of releases, and ever since their first album in 2001 the band has been making a name for itself by firmly establishing it's credentials as one of the tightest contemporary soul outfits out there. The group can already count on the support of names such as Pete Isaac (Jelly Jazz), Mark Lamarr (BBC 2), Craig Charles (BBC 6), Rob Luis (Tru Thoughts), and Michael Ruetten (Compost Records), just to name a few, but with What Goes Around Comes Around The Diplomats Of Solid Sound raise the stakes up a notch. Though the formula remains unchanged, there's an added depth to the music, making this album a heavyweight must-have no matter how you listen to it!

Los Diplomáticos del Sonido Sólido están de vuelta con su 5º álbum completo, y si el último álbum fue su último esfuerzo, con What Goes Around Comes Around la banda se ha graduado oficialmente. Una vez más, mezclado y editado por el chico maravilla de Freestyle, Adam Gibbons aka Lack Of Afro, y con The Diplomettes a la voz, los cortes incluidos aquí son una fuerte muestra de la creciente madurez y sofisticación del grupo. Desde el estribillo de la canción de apertura B-O-O-G-A-L-O-O, hasta el suave número de soul que da título al álbum, el uptempo Back Off, o el groover instrumental Bailout, What Goes Around Comes Around se basa en una variedad de estilos, pero siempre manteniendo el soul y el funky. El sonido vintage de The Diplomats ha sido afinado por casi una década de lanzamientos, y desde su primer álbum en 2001 la banda se ha hecho un nombre por sí misma estableciendo firmemente sus credenciales como uno de los conjuntos de soul contemporáneo más ajustados. El grupo ya cuenta con el apoyo de nombres como Pete Isaac (Jelly Jazz), Mark Lamarr (BBC 2), Craig Charles (BBC 6), Rob Luis (Tru Thoughts) y Michael Ruetten (Compost Records), por nombrar algunos, pero con What Goes Around Comes Around The Diplomats Of Solid Sound suben la apuesta. Aunque la fórmula permanece inalterada, hay una profundidad añadida a la música, lo que convierte a este álbum en un peso pesado que hay que tener, independientemente de cómo se escuche.
