Info:

Played By Karotte, Giles Smith (secretsundaze), Laurent Garnier... Already Up To Its 17th Release, Yore Keeps Rolling On, This Time With A New Release By Memory Foundation. In 1994 Robert Hood Found His Way Into A Dark Basement Somewhere In Viennas Suburbia. Mr. Hood Was Impressed By What He Had Heard, And With Him A Dat-tape Took A Long Journey Back To Where Techno Was Invented Once. With Their First Appearance On Detroits M-plant Label 15 Years Ago, The Memory Foundation Or One Of Their Many Alter Egos Found Its Way Into The Hearts And The Record-bags Of Many Serious Electronic Music Lovers. In 1997, After Setting Up Their Own Record Labels Central And Together With Jeremiah Grow! And Other Releases On M-plant, 7th City Or Usm Followed. The Memory Foundation Now Returns With Their Contribution For The Yore Camp, With Their >reptiles In Exile Ep< They Prove That They Havent Lost Their Magic Touch. The Track Burns With Electro-funk Fire, With Natural Kit And Cymbal Sounds Giving The Already-surging Cut Extra Thrust And The Staccato Burble Of Metallic Chords Adding Berlin Flavour. A Lithe Eight-note Bass Motif Anchors The Warm Techno-funk Of >bass Traveller< As A Flaring Synth Motif Squiggles Alongside Rhodes Chords And A Boogieing Clavinet Line, And Its Easy To Become So Engrossed By The Tunes Relaxed Swing That The Artistry Of Its Arrangement Can Go Underappreciated. Textbook Body Music, >summer Visions< Is An Earthier, Mid-tempo Funk Workout Thats Sure To Get The Dance Floor Crowded, While The Light-speed Closer >reptiles< Blazes A Slinky House Trail Whose Fresh Swing Has Got Yore Written All Over It. With Any Luck, We Wont Be Waiting Twelve More Years For The Next Memory Foundation Release
