ltd 2012 repress !! arguably the most popular track on 2562s stunning >fever< album, >aquatic family affair<, was only available on its cd version and a highly limited 10 inch lp sampler. due to overwhelming demand for the track on wax here it is again in full glory, extended and re-cut. half reissue, half remix 12 inch, the flip has the mighty head high aka shed giving his favourite albumtrack >wasteland< the powerhouse™ remix treatment, slow-building and boombastic as only he can. killer.

whats the point of a concept album when no one hears the concept in it? maybe that it sets a boundary, forcing mr artist to go even deeper into the fewer possibilities left. creativity by limitation and all thatÉ well spare you further theorizing. >fever<, the third longplayer by dutch low end scientist 2562, then, is his disco album: a thorough reinterpretation of underground disco music from the mid seventies to the early eighties, with his own birthyear 1979 as the gravitational point. all based on one simple rule: every single sound, from the smallest background shiver to the most obese sub bass, originates from a disco record Ð no additional synthesizers, drumcomputers or other samplesources involved. disco-edits, italo homages or filtered loops then? hardly. this is genuinely new and retro-free music that respectfully flips its sources so hard even the biggest paradise garage connaisseurs wont recognize what just hit them. or in the words of musical allies martyn and pinch, who independently drew the same conclusion: >sorry, but i dont hear that whole disco story in there. this simply sounds like you.< completely failed as a concept album, then Ð and all the better for it.
