With identifiable nods to Scan 7’s Underground Resistance affiliations - the label that launched the group, and whose militaristic and political philosophies can be found littered throughout their discography - the EP begins with quintessential Detroit strings and groove before delving into darker techno territory. On the A-side, “The Resistance” offers an uplifting and delightfully nostalgic jaunt through dance music past, using all those favourite and immortal house tropes to deliver instant gratification. Meanwhile, the B-side shows off Scan 7 as masters of warm, yet shadowy techno - plus their trademark drum work - in the hypnotic “Why Not?” and driving, basement-ready “In & Out Of The Groove". *Alongside many outings on Tresor’s renowned compilation series, Scan 7 produced two albums for the label - ‘Dark Territory’ in 1996, followed up by ‘Resurfaced’ in 1999 - before leader TrackMasta Lou’s Cratesavers Muzik took over as the group’s primary recording outlet.[info from wa]
