in about 2003 i did some work for deepfunk and northern soul legend keb darge and as was the way back then i received payment in vinyl. included in the pile was this little detroit number which i instantly fell in love with. in 1980 david mcmurray and adell shavers and david mcmurray (who went on to be a member of 80s hit band was not was) wrote and produced this amazing detroit modern / boogie 45 which for some reason suffered the same fate of many of aotn releases and disappeared from history. but thanks to the generation of collectors before me this gem sat safely in northern collection such as kebs for years waiting for its day in the sun. it only got limited play but recently the record has had a resurgence in popularity and value which it deserves. after a tip off from jason stirland (soulstax records) i found david mcmurray and it was wonderful to find he was keen to help me bring this wonderful 45 back into the limelight. so here we are…

2015 repress ... willie burns and entro senestre team up for their second release on l.i.e.s. under the daywalker + cf moniker. big things on here! picking up right where last year s release left off, the title track supersonic transport turns out to be their most dancefloor driven effort to date. doing exactly what the title states, it moves in beautifully epic territories throughout its almost 8 minutes long course, taking you where you need to go. the b-side turns the floor vibes down a notch, as both tracks are left alone to breath in their own worlds, each with equal space and unique sonic character. ace release from these guys.

entirely off the safe path, nonconformity and badass sounds are merging for snork #72 to send the ultimate sos for genuine techno. snork enterprises meets remute out in left field with three tracks not only to save our souls, also to save our sound of raw, underground techno. in a distorted space of sound, eclectic morse-codes come floating while persistent base lines keep the machines running. sirens sound and tortured steel is building up a sphere of vibrating noise spreading all over the hull and sustainedly screaming for sos. soaring beats forecast the last burst of strength. a freak wave of forceful sounds is rearing up. scared minds are facing the darkness of endless depth, still longing for the last beam of moonlight. yet, the all-embracing wall of infinity is merciless closing the entire surface. in an ambience of distortion, finally everlasting silence is drawing through the dark deepness devouring every vivid glance. from the distance down below there remains one inward echo - the ultimate sos.

there are times when the ocean is not the ocean - not blue, not even water, but some violent explosion of energy and danger: ferocity on a scale only gods can summon. it hurls itself at the island, sending spray right over the top of the lighthouse, biting pieces off the cliff. and the sound is a roaring of a beast whose anger knows no limits. those are the nights the light is needed most. - m.l. stedman
