Pépé Bradock – Un Pépé En Or Vol. 1

18 Carats is one of the tracks that made me fell in love with deep house being a French touch head many years ago. It’s one of these classics that will always be classics for a reason.

'18 Carats' ranks with the any of the great late 90's era house tracks

Every groove is good on this one. Buy it while it's still affordable.

Pepe Bradock is in my opinion, one of the finest house/techno producers of the decade. His diversity astounds me. His production is loaded with subtlety and he uses his sounds and samples in perfect balance. I own most of his records and the variation in his tracks range from vocal house (always with an unexpected twist in the tail) to some of the darkest club tracks you'll ever hear. This particular release showcases all of the above and whether you hate the house tracks or love them, you'll definately be captivated by the stomping techno track that teases you and leaves you teetering on the edge of whatever you are sitting or standing on, then breaking into a dark chugging beast of a track. In my opinion, a classic of large proportions not to be overlooked by anybody who is into the sound of tracks like 'Energy Flash' by Beltram, Photek's 'Glamourama' or 'Preacherman' by Green Velvet. Dark as they come and production to die for.

Very big talent from france. This musician brings classic Chicago Deep House and modern France House style together. Very good!
