Self Defence returns in full effect with New Yorks one and only DJ Dukes (of Sex Trax / Power Music Fame) >Summer Madness EP<. Dj Duke had retired from the music front for a while, after he had about 300 records emerged after his >Blow Your Whistle< blew up in 1993 and during the past few years. With releases dating back to 1990, you know the mans got skills aplenty, and they once again get a killer workout on this EP. Each of the tracks shows a different side of his music-making and rewards ones time and attention, demonstrating that Duke plays in his own league of House Music. A bit of curry flavour seeps into >Summer Blast< by way of a sinuous string melody, adding an exotic tinge to the breeziness that otherwise infuses the cut. A funky, vibes-like motif and analog synth streams bring additional colour to the scene while a crisp, pumping groove locks everything solidly in place
