Zenith - Human Will - 28-Dec-07 07:27 AM
I was lucky enough to pay muchos euros so as to lay my hands on what was presented to me as a "white-label promo" copy of this Federico Franchi classic. What the postman left at my doorstep turned out, o joy, to be a highly low-quality bootleg.

An awful thickly-cut pressing mutilates the original "hard trance" tracks and doesn't serve the already aging melodies. Anything beyond basic acid and keyboard lines gets nastily saturated, although the A-side is slightly less worse than the other one. At appropriate sound level, listening to it with your headphones will quickly have your ears begging for mercy. Playing it out loud to a crowd might very well get you lapidated. Not only am I too old to make such a bold try but I will take no responsibility should you attempt to do so.

You have just been warned.

Please note that a bootleg of this release exists. It is also (thickly) cut as a 10", but with a white label on both sides, which may have some handwriting on them, or not. The record has a very poor pressing and was issued in a generic sleeve with a black and white photocopy of the original sticker. Be extremely cautious when people put up for sale supposedly "white-label promo" copies. Be it on ebay or here on Discogs.

Emiliaz - Black Shadow - 16-Apr-07 02:12 PM
It's no wonder some mistook this release for another Emmanuel Top production. The whole record is built around the acid lines of Turkish Bazar and came out a year after the original. Not a remix though as the sample is used in a harder and faster way, thus landing a result quite far from Top's tune. Don't be turned off by the Hard Trance etiquette. Depending on the mix you play, you'll also please hard house and techno heads. Academic yet efficient.

Gangstar Toons Industry - Concret Jungle - 17-Feb-07 03:58 PM
One-shot collaboration between the Gangstar Toon Industries crew and an African singer. Very few copies in circulation due to the fact that the singer, unsatisfied with the result, decided against the release of this record. The only real track is A1, somewhere in-between jungle, hardcore and experimental. A2 can very well be considered as the end-extension of the previous one. The B-side lets you generously enjoy approximately seven seconds of church bells.

Jean-Michel Jarre - The Concerts In China - 28-Apr-05 08:33 AM
In October 1981, after spending two years convincing the local authorties, Jarre flew over to China for a serie of five concerts. Quite an event since no western artist had played in the country since Mao's death. This double album is a balanced alliance between Chinese traditional instruments and synths. Very nice and unique atmosphere.
