Booka Shade feat Fritz Kalkbrenner – Crossing Borders – Embassy One / Blaufield Music
DMC World Magazine
This is the sort of Robert Owens reminiscent release that could earn Booka Shade their star on this year’s House Heroes Walk of Fame. ‘Crossing Borders’ marries a leisurely rolling melody with Fritz Kalkbrenner’s caramel smooth, gruff textured wavering vocal and builds until it becomes a masterclass in exploiting a deadly groove. The other three mixes dig so deep underground that they’re in danger of fracking right to the earth’s musical core and that’s what ‘Crossing Borders’ is all about.
