I guess I’ll just do 5 to swear by that aren’t posted yet
Love everything about this one, every single element, all the way thru, perfection
The flip to this is also completely amazing, but I love the dark sporadic and abrupt vibes here, some of the programming reminds me a bit of “Set Me Free” (maybe one of the same breaks)
Yeah “Time Tunnel” is total anarchic bliss and its unruly sampling of “Moments in Love” is epic but here’s another one where the flip is equal IMO, and I’m more partial to it. The main stab sequence is fucked, bassline very on point and nice pads later on
Maybe not a ton going on like usual but the sample selection is obviously totally brilliant. Brutal beat too.
Side note: how big was Akira in the UK at this time? Looks like it came out even a couple years after the American release, was Chris a complete nerd?
Gotta love the title “Hardcore Youth.” Off the Jungle Fever Remix EP, weighty, textbook form, again one where I just absolutely love it front to back.
