NEXT TO "ICON", EASILY THE MOST SOULFUL WORK DERRICK HAS EVER DONE; GRITTY AS THE DOWNTOWN DETROIT STREETS-FILLED WITH THE COMPLEX HI-HAT AND TRIBAL PERCUSSION THAT MUSIC INSTITUTE GRADUATES REMEMBER...A MUST FOR ANYONE COLLECTING 80'S DETROIT TECHNO...
What can be said about this track... a futuristic almost romantic' masterpiece that when listened to takes you somewhere beyond the stars and back, it's as close as your going to get to coming up off a good pill without doing one! When i first heard this track it sent a sharp shiver and vibration up my back and my arse went! One of the best tracks ever made in any genre of music, if not the best. A stunning May Masterpiece 5*
As Mr May said: I begun to understand that I had a new thing going on. You can say that It Is What It Is forced dancemusic into a unknown area back in -88.
Together with Beyond the dance (on the b-side) he constructed his typically organic sound.
The track is meltdown of all of the the complex feelings of humanity.
The last 30 seconds of the track is frustating of life!
If you only can take one dancerecord with you to the stars, It Is What It Is will be the best choice. Enfore.
