welcome return for this very sought-after rare electro 12 inch from tiny harlem label express records. big with the cosmic crowd as well as on the early hiphop scene, this is an extremely cool low-slung synth-heavy electro groover with a hypnotically smooth lead vocal, given a sharp percussive edge by the rattling congas and ticky-time chorus. written at a time in rap music history when the introduction of synthesizer technology created a wild flurry of creativity, this futuristic track by barry michael cooper (who went on to write the screenplays for movies new jack city and above the rim) was teletrons only ever release. film s gain was sadly musics loss as this was, and still is, a boundary-pushing, floor-filling monster. dont sleep!

with surprise cut on center ... after the success of the first release, tanstaafl returns for their second wax adventure, this time with the musical renegade dj october at the helm. october has entered a new phase of production for the tanstaafl series and has focused himself firmly on a reduced, stripped and effective formula for the floor. his productions are heavy, smoked out narcoleptic dub infused journeys, and his latest 12 offers more or less of the same opaque vibe but with his sights firmly set on the floor, with one foot in the past and the other in the future - drawing from his usual detroit, nyc and chicago influences. so we kick off 2012 with a future classic, singularity jump, which douses you in synthesized saxophone hooks, chopped vocal samples and a meaty juno hip-house inspired bass-line.planet of minds is more of a inner space affair very much inspired by acid and dub. successfully combining the two, october injects more of an airy feel into the mix and delivers a moody cosmic acid jam that will not fail your dancing feet or tripped-out mind. definitely one for the later hours.this is going to be an anthem, hands down, so get it before its gone for good.
