...a tune positioned somewhere wonderful between techno, house and disco, and of course it appears on this 12 inch in its original form.
But for the lead track, Lopazz hands over the reins to Paul Ritch, whose string of fine releases over the past year or so, for labels like
Resopal, Fumakilla and Get Physical, have made him one of the scene's most sought-after names.
A single-minded 4x4 pulse sets the pace, providing the basis for increasingly intense, tribalesque percussion, and dubbed-out samples of Lopazz's original
instrumentation.
This unbelievably deep, hypnotic remix demonstrates an allegiance to both classic Detroit techno and the razor-sharp vanguard of modern day minimal techno.
On the flip, Lopazz offers '2 4 Fast U' to another underground techno visionary for re-interpretation, this time Guillaume, also known as Guillaume and The
Coutu Dumonts.
Beautifully produced, exuberant EPs for Mutek and Hartchef Discos have seen Guillaume become a producer of note to those in the know..
