KEITH TUCKER
IT’S A MOOD (DETROIT SAVED MY SOUL)
SEVENTH SIGN

Keith Tucker is a name from the original subterranean Detroit underground, having appeared on Metroplex, Direct Beat and 430 West (Sometimes as DJ K-1). This is his debut on Glasgow’s quality-strewn Seventh Sign and is the real deal. The title track plants its raspy electro riff on a groove which fits more into the favoured dirty acid house-techno enclosure, while the strings are pure deep Detroit. ‘Elektronik’ is a glacial, typically-haunting creep through his familiar electro leanings, while ‘My Mental State’ is bare and surreal. All come with Keith’s vocal interjections, which add to the atmosphere. Great to see the Motor City burning again.
