der drummachine-mann kehrt zu permanent vacation zurück! tevo howard hat in den letzten jahren die discokugeln seiner heimatstadt gründlich abgestaubt. 2010 hat er auf permanent vacation bereits die großartige ep what is noise? veröffentlicht. nun fragt er uns - what is sound?. seine antwort könnte klarer nicht ausfallen: die vier chicago-house-tracks dieser ep sind heruntergestrippt und ungeheuer hypnotisch, so wie man es von tevo howard kennt. das spektrum reicht von deepen party-startern über technoide banger bis hin zu tracks, die eine große nacht adäquat ausklingen lassen
