Well hello there big boy! Mr 303 in all his glory, exposing himself just
like it was 1988 and benefiting from a trio of sonic activists – Eddie
Reynolds, Paul Reynolds and Dean Feeney – hammering away at their respective
instruments and bouncing off each other. Not a mobile ringtone impression in
sight! After the Trax Records-style groove and acid motif is established,
dense strings enter the picture and builds into massive old school-style
monster, essentially stoked by the brutally effective drum programming. Then
Lasimp Sanskrit comes in accentuating mournful strings, adding deep
resonance with a new Rhythim Is Rhythim-flavoured bassline. The flip’s
‘Space Disco’ is deeper, sparser and clonked-up with suitable space tones,
coming with Sonja Moonear’s remix adding an ethereal new dimension and
bassatronic overpants. All round, a massive reminder of how essential the
human element still has to be in dance music.
