All hardcore lovers know this record. "Poltergeist" was in its day when it came out an instant classic. Multipal plays on one hardcore party where normal. And the crowd loved it. I've seen a dance floor on a "Thunderdome" in Antwerp, Belgium go wild. 20.000 Ravers broke loose after the "There Here" sample from the Poltergeist movie. Then a heavy 909 bassdrum kicks in escorted by 909 claps. Then one of the most scariest synthleads comes in. Afterwards many times sampled, rebuild, used...like Rave Creator's "New Mind".
On the B side however we find "Voodoo Nightmare" a strange track compared to the A side. It starts out with a drumband riff accomplished by a break beat. A nervous Juno sound accents the beat when a deep basslead goes,hard and growling, testing your woofers. A man's voice shouts "What are you looking at buddy, you one a piece of me, come on, come on". Drum and bass acid tekkno of the finest hour is what your getting. I think this is the better track of the two, but you can't deny a large audience. "Poltergeist" put Dr. Macabre on the hardcore map, and listining to "Voodoo Nightmare" there is intelligent hardcore.
