Todd Terry Project, The - Bango (To The Batmobile) / Back To The Beat - 28-Jun-09 05:28 AM
Two classic acid house tracks here that blend Freestyle beats and loops taken from a number of records as well as Marylin Monroes famous giggle that features in Bango.
Both sides are absolutely littered with samples from various sources one of which came from Kevin Saundersons track The Sound, Kevin then shortly after released Back To The Beat (With The Sound) that sampled Todd Terry, this was seen by many as a retaliation gesture due to Todd Terrys use of the sample in Back To The Beat.
The production is very raw and on some (if not all)copies of this if you listen to the B side it sounds as though some of the samples are leaking into another channel as you can still hear the samples very distant in the background before the are re-added to the mix.
Both tracks on this are timeless and can be played to maximum effect nowadays, this is Todd Terry back in the day doing what he did best.

Dream Plant - The Mighty Machine - 02-Jan-08 08:58 PM
Now i really hate whistles being used in tunes as they sound sooo damn cheesy but...This record is an exceptional in that the whistles really compliment the rest of the tune, the bouncy baseline , crunchy handclaps and that wonderful filtered synth loop , unfortunately i only own the Prolekult boxset with the original mix on so i cannot comment on what i think of the B side (although i have heard it a few times)i quite agree with the above review
this tune is a free party classic :)

Keyboards Affair - Tubular Bells - 03-Nov-07 08:28 PM
Although many ppl would agree to differ IMO this is a splendid version of the mike oldfield classic ,it uses all the elements very well and is not just a house remix of a timeless classic ,the way the instruments build in this release is excellent (he even credits and pays homage to mike oldfield in part of the record)and ... as the story goes mike oldfield wasnt too happy about this being released and due to him kicking up a stink many of the copies were destroyed. All in all this is a highly recommended release

Lemon D - DJ On Wax 4 Track E.P - 02-Apr-07 12:52 PM
This e.p is one of my most loved from 1992 as all 4 tracks are great, a1 is a piano break beat classic b1 being of a similar style . The production is very good for the time as well so i would most certainly recommend buying this if you can track it down
