Sampler #3 from the Global Communication "Back In The Box" compilation album, the techno and ambient retrospective selected by Tom Middleton and Mark Pritchard, back together again after a 15 year hiatus. Opening up this seriously hot four track EP is an ultra rare and often overlooked Carl Craig Remix of Yennek, AKA Kenny Larkin. Two Detroit pioneers collide on this beauty, with delicate oscillating keys gliding over a heavyweight breakbeat and clattering hats, a signature style of Carl's. The track really kicks in with the bassline and monumental pitch bending synth stabs. A real must have for anyone with a love for the original Detroit sound. Track two comes from UK's Matt Cogger AKA Neuropolotique, but recorded in Detroit for Juan Atkin's Interface label back in 1990. A track like no other, this is uncompromising stuff, and way ahead of its time. Crazy, distorted, tubular, plastic techno beats with big, big modular synth work. Not for the faint hearted! Out of Amsterdam, Maarten van der Vleuten was one of the wave of Dutch producers pioneering the sound alongside Detroit, British and German counterparts. Flux's "True Feelings" is a string-dominated squelch-funker with the DX100 synths trademark twangy bass wrapping around face slapping snares, claps and funky conga lines. Originally out on an R&S Records sub-label back in 1992. Wrapping up this essential release are the godfathers of the UK sound, 808 State. The tee-shirt used to say "on the sixth day, God created Manchester", but before that he must of created 808 State, who truly opened up UK ears to the techno sound. This track, lifted from their phenomenal album "90", is moody and sparse, with almost an Eastern feel to it's glacial melody and hypno-groove. More
