Side A opens with Drivetrain's, "Detroit Tronic." An homage to the music of his hometown, this track rewrites the script. The relentless pulse of the percussion, the throbbing bass line ad the vocal chanting will take you on a philosophical departure to the root of it all, The Motor City. Drivetrain flips the script on track two. An electro version of Detroit Tronic, "Tronic Lockstep" displays another facet of his unending musical arsenal. The subsonic rumbligs and meticulously syncopated programming was intended for maximum sonic output and for those who know…. Lockstep.

Syncrophone revisits Soiree Records International founder Drivetrain’s ‘Soundtrack’ this October with reworks from DJ Deep and Romain Poncet.
The original version of ‘Soundtrack’ was released 25 years ago (1993) via Drivetrain’s own revered. Soiree Records International imprint he ran out of his hometown of Detroit since 1990, as the name would suggest the composition embodies a motion picture feel, produced on the leading outboard gear of the time from Roland, Yamaha and Akai and inspired by fellow producers of the time like Laurent Garnier, 808 State and Guy Called Gerald pushing their cinematic sounds into House and Techno. The original mix leads with bumpy drums and resonant acid bleeps driving the cut, whilst emotive strings and elongated bass pads ebb and flow within. DJ Deep’s ‘Collectors Edit’ follows, keeping the core essence of the original whilst drawing the structure out to a more subtly blooming eight minutes. Up next is the DJ Deep & Roman Poncet Remix which twists the original composition into a machine funk workout fuelled by modulating broken rhythms, a heady arpeggio bass line and bubbling pads whilst stirring in the original’s hypnotic strings. DJ Deep’s ‘Dub Beat Edit’ then rounds out the package; stripping things back to focus solely on the robust analogue drum groove and choppy acid stabs alone.

Yore proudly adds Detroit's "Drivetrain" to the stable. Drivetrain's the nom de plume for Derrick Thompson, a DJ and producer who heads up Soiree Records International, a label with a strong soulful house focus, who has been around since Detroit's early days. With over 50 releases on his back, from Beatdown Sessions to numerous Remixes & Collaborations, you can tell that "Drivetrain" has a soft spot in his heart for the rich production values of '70s Philly soul associated with producers such as Gamble & Huff and Thom Bell. That kinship comes through loud and clear in the EP's second cut, "The Rain," when Thompson sweetens the tune's brisk rhythms with triangle, electric piano, alto sax, flute, acoustic bass and a gravelly "Make love (in the rain)" command that sounds like it's oozing from the lips of a tasty DJ.
"The Rain" is trumped by the A-side's "Angel (Serenity Mix)," which opens with a sinuous house thrust and then heats up with a tight, jacking groove that Thompson soulfully embellishes with synthesizer flourishes and a smooth vocal refrain of the song's title. The vibe is lush and soulful in the extreme, with the vocals alternating between a soft murmur and robust declamation while the percolating, dub-inflected house pulse pushes determinedly forward underneath. The EP ends with the title track, "Tragedy Park," which is closer in spirit to a stomping techno Raver that's had a smidgen of acid thrown in for extra flavour. Definitely a floor shaking Bomb!

Derrick Thompson taps into your auditory flesh from beat one. Beefy percussion introduce a plump bass groove; elegant pads fill the terrain as subliminal suggestions inject a deeply enticing poison.

Schemata – kinetically deep, music architecture.
