AN 2 (Andrei A. Zakharov) is IMHO one of the very best producers out there these days..
Combining retro sounds with a high quality house feeling, you can say he is one of the leading figures of the "neo-disco" sound. Never the same kinda tracks, always surprising and fresh... May it be slow down tempo tracks, synth-pop, deep house, disco-ish and house, always right on the money. He runs the label "Theomatic" since 2004 which is based in the city of St. Petersburg, Russia.
All his releases and remixes have an outstanding quality, musicaly and technicaly. Very highly recommended! Peace...

Both tracks indeed include a sample from "Wear It Out" by Starguard, and beautiful done I must add, but the track itself is heavely based on, if not, totally relies on the the seminal and genius soft rock / jazz funk track "Peg" by "Steely Dan" from the 1977 LP "Aja". Sample also used in a "De La Soul" track, amongst many other tracks by many other artists... Essential Choon for those who like to groove on a feel good vibe thats very reconizable on the dance floor. Timeless groover....

Excelent release this is. For those who are into the "neo-disco" and "retro" sound.
Track A1 is an energetic breaky-electro track.
A2 track is a beautiful downtempo flowing gem using acoustic guitar and dreamy pads.
The B1 track is similar to the A1 track but much more deep and disco-ich, quality.
But for me the B2 track "Too Hard" remixed by "Aeroplane" is the most outstanding downtempo track I have heard in a long time.
This track best discribes as: Dancing on the rocky beach in front of Cafe Del Mar, Ibiza, while the sun sets and the crowd smiles... pure bliss...
Motorbass - 1st EP - 02-Dec-07 05:10 PM
The track that did me buy this record 14 years ago is the B1 track "Stereogramm Gelato". It is heavely based upon, infact uses a baseline sample from the track "Wicky Wacky" by "The Fatback Band". Motorbass didnt alter much to the original, just removed the vocals and kinda put the bassline in a loop, added a hi-hat and a rimshot and a kickin bassdrum. Throughout the track is a helicopter-like sound and trancy bleeps and blops whitch realy work and make this track sound sinister and realy funky at the same time. A total classic cut this is, very highly recommended.

Super energetic disco tune, totaly original and still sounding VERY fresh in the year 2007!! Pitched up also usable in a house set. Did it, and it worked marvelously!!
Mixing this in a house set makes that moment very eclectic and diverse. The beat in this tune is kind a different from other disco jams, no regular 4x4 standard beat, but an offbeat sort of breaky beat. The guitar lick in this tune is also off the hook!!. Over all: A not well known or under appreciated track that deserves much more!! Recommended!!!
