Dark but not boring tribal-tech House that has been supported by Mazi` Satoshi and Deep C. The Mike G mix is the one everyone is hammering`not alot going on but errie sounds and a throbbing deep b-line` totally one of those groove tracks that has been custom built for a big rig. Fans of Saw` Nrk` Yoshi should check this. The original from Sean Cusick and Lenni Kern is more driving with primitive rhythms and 'Pulsating' female vocal snips. Very Pilivavin & Zimbardo sounding. Top marks all round! Recommended.
Slammin' Tidy Trax-style UK hard house biz with mixes from DJ PAGANO and LOOP JUNKIES! Pagano unleashes a storming peak hour mix that would make Tony DeVit proud` with a head-nodding bass and cut n paste sample stabs leading to a dope synth-filled breakdown ala Andy Farley or Lee Haslam. Loop Junkies kick it German style` with a very Organ Donors feel that is all about the dark grinding analogues and heavy reversed bass stabs- top notch dancefloor fuel!-TH2329
'Big new track from the Essential promo posse with mixes by Brother Brown (Under the Water). It's very much in the Deep Dish/ Subliminal/ Yoshitoshi vein with a big club sound` one side with a vocal and the flip being a hard hittin' dub.'

Soaring vocal cries and digital strings come in to take the energy and blow it skyward. You will not forget this mix! On the flip is the 'Devil Mix' living up to its name with a harder` dirtier vibe thanks to some beefed up drums` heavier riffs and a massive final chord drop. Back in from Monday!
'After a very long wait` here is the record that started the Phats & Small craze` the UK slanted funky filtered disco with wonderful groove. Excellent track for Essential.'

Vocal trance number on Sunsream's Five AM label.This one sounds a little like the work of some Dutch producer coz it samples that old "Hypnotic" track that they have been pinching for years.Using this sample as a base they build upon it with big vocals and melodic effects and the mixes come from Tsunami's Kid Vicious.

Brilliant return for LA's Quadra (Bombworx/ Stimuli) thats already gone straight into CHRISTOPHER LAWRENCE's playbox in TP form` where its been given the proper hammering it deserves!
