"X-Xquared - I'll See You There in the Night."
High quality Detroit electro from Mad Mike. The sense of subversion and paranoia is tangible in this excellent track (vocal and instrumental versions present). Fat beats, hollow bouncing synth atmosphere, massive chunky baseline and awesome kraftwerk detroit strings plus a classic Detroit electro monotone vocal! A tune that occupies the upper echelons of Direct Beat's and UR's already elevated chambers in the Electro halls of fame.

"X-Xquared - I'll See You There in the Night."

On the flip we have two more electro grooves - "Digital" is a fairly silly hollow plipping repetitive workout, and "CR-8000" chugs along nicely but never really goes anywhere. Top mixing fodder for Electro jocks though.
