Pan Sonic ‎– B

It's been over a decade since Pan Sonic released this record but I still find it just as fresh as the day I bought it. Though this may sound ridiculous to some, I think this record is really one of the most underrated techno releases of all time. These guys managed to take just a handful of carefully crafted sounds and create something that is at once aurally interesting, sinister, fun and, most importantly, funky. No, it's not your run of the mill dancefloor 4-tracker, but that's what makes it so great. You could fit this in with an acid set, an old dirty Relief Records type of jackin' mix, or something truly twisted and unique. Props to Finland and Pan Sonic. I'm never disappointed! -from Chicago w/ love and respect.

It sometimes seems as if Pan(a)sonic's 12"-es always keep much closer to a virtual "dancefloor" than their albums. More speed, more drive, more forward, one can say that about "B" as much as about the '96 "Osasto"-EP too. Different style, same class.
