Satoshi Tomiie biggest hit was >Tears<, a collaboration with Frankie Knuckles that was released on FFRR back in 1989. The release of the single was a ground breaking moment, at a time when the huge movement of House and Techno was in its infancy. More than 20 years later and Satoshi has just completed the building of his brand new studio in New York City. With his focus having been firmly on his DJ touring for many years,interspersed with releases and remixes, its now time for the SAW Recordings boss to enjoy his very own new flight deck. Straight Up is a track that displays the true and original acid house sound! says Systematic Boss Marc Romboy of the first single to come out of Tomiies studio. Having immediately snapped up the tune for the label he called his good friend Alex Niggemann in Berlin who, sharing his friends opinion and love of the track, spontaneously set about producing his own interpretation.
