Good resume by the man like Frankie B. Don't forget that Harthouse were basically the platform for the very first forays into dance music by (now very well known artists, such as) Cari Lekebusch (as "Braincell", by the way if you haven't got "Man of Many Theories LP", I urge you to seek it out, a must for any techno collector) as well as the great Oliver Leib (as "Spicelab" and "The Ambush", apart from his early ZYX releases).

Unfortunately, the label tends to be overlooked these days with the advent of digitally-produced dance music and the (in my opinion, boring) in-vogue "minimal" sound that everyone's raving about these days...

A truly great label that trance, acid and techno heads alike will hold dear forever...

Massive respect must go out to the DJ Fav with "Time Travel", by far and away the BEST track on this EP (and a VERY good EP it is too!). Time Travel has the lot, and sounds just like a '92/'93 floor banger:

a. Sexy female hardcore samples between breaks, check !
b. Rollllin' breakbeats, check!
c. Bad-ass acid line (think Homegrown Records 001 "Firin on all cylinders"), check!
d. Butthole-clenching B-Line, check!
e. Hairs on the back of yer neck Piano drops, check!

A MUST for any serious Oldskool Hardcore collector. Drop this in your local club and watch everone dance on the ceiling!
