It’s only years later that the boss of German label Flying Circus found out what ‘that’ record he fell in love with in a Sven Väth set was… ‘Mad Monks On Zinc’ by Holy Ghost Inc. The 1992 original (included on this re-release), a breakbeaty cut with gated vocals and catchy piano licks (kinda peak-time Future Sound of London), brings you back to the legendary Drum Club (129 BPM). Now fast forward to 2007, two new minimal-ish versions are ready to give a new lease of life to this cult classic. Adultnapper slows things down (123) and turns out a sombre robotic groover whilst Martin Buttrich takes an hypnotic Deep Forest route that’s quite chilled out. Shame the pianos disappeared altogether…
