pick up your guitar, grab a mic and start to party - its rock n roll, baby!

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

yes, hes back with a huge follow up, after his first impress he left with down. his decision to work with the wonderful and unique voice of soniamiki was just magnificient. marlon krupa is well known in the minimal techno szene because of his digital releases, which always climed the highest positions in digital download charts. its high time to introduce him to the friends of vinyl. with his minimal remix, he will impress! at least, racso and jenn pushed the original in their different kind of styles and generate at all, a record with a high variety of sound and styles. taste the full-bodied flavour of the night!
