Kraftwerk - Expo Remix - 17-Oct-03 09:42 AM
I could talk about Kraftwerk all day and night but what spurred me to write about this one is because I was very interested, right off the bat, to find out what kind of treatment the various artists would have given it. The real stand outs are the Francois K. and UR remixes. For some reason, the UR mixes don't particularly feel like they really used much of what was in the track, but it still shows just how awesome these guys respect and revere the band. The Francois K. mix just bowled me over. Really, really good.
Paperclip People - Throw / Remake (Basic Reshape) - 17-Oct-03 09:34 AM
Okay, I picked this one because the Basic Channel retooling is really, really good despite it's lack of overt dancefloor appeal. That is to say, you'll really have to own the crowd before you drop this one but if you do, this is the one that'll definitely take someone out there somewhere. Of course, the original is still every bit as good as it's ever been, though I don't quite understand why it had to be such a long record. Usually, I jump right into the breakdown and take it from there. Still, it's one worth owning.
Soul Designer - Walking On A Little Cloud - 17-Oct-03 09:28 AM
This album, as a whole, represents a style of music making that has won Mr. Fabrice Lig the respect of many a Detorit deejay and producer. It is stunning! Tracks go from dreamy, headphones only, deep house soundscapes to uplifting and groovesome body movers that bubble over with joy. A great one from one of the greats. Now go and buy it.
Sean Deason - Zig - 17-Oct-03 09:19 AM
This is still my favorite record by Sean Deason. The collaboration with Claude Young is a banging, floor shaker with a bit of a housey hook, while the filp side is something warm and remarkably well put together - it builds up into a full blown, epic scale dancefloor pleaser that immediately gives one the sense that it was intended for the deep mix enthusiast. A great and ambitious effort.
Jeff Mills - At First Sight - 14-Oct-03 01:34 PM
In my opinion, this is the definitive Mills album. It goes from raw, minimal and distended funk to spacey and adventurous science fiction landscapes to lush and melodic, string compositions which just tug at your heart. Trademark Detroit style music with the flair of veteran savvy from someone who's been there from the beginning. This one is sure to please home and dancefloor music enthusiasts alike.
