Search - Various Artists :: Heretic 1.0

The compilation gathers 17 tracks in one cd which goes off the beaten track, through new sounds and remains also clean and terse. Soon after we hit the play button, we will be hosted by a tasteful break beat signed EC1M, for meeting after that a sinister and driving tech-house, Joakim and the track 'Come Into My Kitchen'. Already well known, the track 'Don't See the Point' produced by Alex Smoke discretely makes its appearance, bringing some color and melody to the mix, following after that to discover another tune which did it great on the tech-house scene, 'Soul Trader', a song coming from Bill Payer and Fat Hippy. In a little while we find an excellent tune from St Plomb, and lately the extraordinary Paolo Mojo's 'Crack House', a very dynamic and massive track which won't let you sit for at least a single moment. From here the real mix starts to flow, the track start to agglomerate, to become more and more driving and playful, providing to the listener a good reprise of real music mixed in a slickly way, with a complete and innovative technique. Therefore some dement tunes burst out, as 'Pop Locking' produced by Fries & Bridges or Joe Montana with the track 'Boys', remixed by the two heretics. The things are very good until now, the unbound rhythm becoming more and more acid and kicking, making us move and firing up the dance floor. After this follows Begginerz with the track called 'Rhythm Foundation (Buick Project mix)', another great tech-house with some smooth flavors of electro and some very gradate effects. The track 'Don't Bother Me' coming from The Glass sweetens up the mix providing some nice melody, not only from the ingeniously composed instrumental, but also from a sublime vocal, and Dj Ali amplifies this cheerfulness with his track, giving a relaxing air to the compilation and making it playful and dense. An excellent track comes up next, 'Smell of Sweat', produced by Voltique, profundity in the melodic line, a spark of energy and a powerful and alive beat. The duo Cass & Slide is here too with a great tune, pretty simple but featuring an impressive dynamism with a unique rhythm and a few shades of melody gorgeously faded on the techy grooves pattern. Induceve and the track 'Ooo Yessir' provides a fresh beat, combining a dynamic tech-house with some relaxing and jazzy breakdowns. After that we find Lee Buridge in a very good shape alongside Andy Page, producing together 'Why Are The Pretty Ones Always Insane?', a strange tune with many abstract and dubious synths which perfectly combines with a heavy break beat coming from Groovy. And the track which closes up the compilation is called 'Kill Rock n Roll (Let it Bleed)' and is produced by Dibaba; an excellent tech-house combined with minimal, one of the best tunes from the entire compilation, coming with a fresh wave of synths and deep beats. Sabotage. 2005.
