eddie flashin fowlkes has always fancied himself as the forgotten producer of the detroit militia, a point which he explicitly points to on the title of this new release for the detroit wax imprint. >unsung hero< is, interestingly enough, quite noticeably un-detroit sounding, rolling on a killer funky 2-step groove and breezy keys which would slot in nicely against the mellower end of uk garage. on the flip >we need more< takes a stripped approach to house with some strange and submerged vocals from don q and restrained organ stabs, leaving it to the steadfast, bongo-laden groove to do most of the work. unsung hero indeed!

first ever vinyl reissue of the 1982 album from the warriors.

when he proceeded further into the production process, he limited himself using the computer less and instead learning to trust his intuition, the flow of his fingers and to use his own voice as an instrument. this led to an album that is rather hard to pin down genre-wise but even easier to connect to emotionally when you listen to it from start to finish.

released 25th november on the seminal strictly rhythm label, the album is vastly different from the majority of electronic albums out there. it has a decidedly soulful, blues-y feel and instead of the heres ten club tracks, will this do approach, tim took his time and immersed himself completely into the record, surrounding himself with some of the best contemporary jazz musicians around, including jim mullen (guitar), rod youngs and enzo zirilli (drums), pete wareham (sax), jay phelps (trumpet), john donaldson (piano) and ben hazleton (bass).

the observer effect is a brainy and challenging record. recorded exclusively with gear, with all tracks arranged live, its tracks are pure explorations of the process of writing electronic music.
