referencing Velvet Tracks, 12", RR 702

Haven't really taken much notice of the other tracks apart from THE PREACHER MAN. Its got a hard, although not fast beat, and has a male speach vocal throughout in an agressive american tone ranting on about a game called "house" in which involved having no morals and shagging anyone you want and having children with whoever you can. Sounds harsh, but it really is fantastic. Its been included on Derrick Mays "Mayday mix", and if its good enough for him, its good enough for anyone. 8/10.

The preacher man, featuring on this album, is one of the greatest releases of his kind from the early 90's.
This track has maintained its quality allover the years, and still is a great tune to use these days.
In Europe, it has mainly been one of the best techno tracks used for the last decade.
