1. Words from the frontlines
2. Hear the man
3. Ready for this

Following their celebrated 'Meat is Murder' EP...
...Meat, aka Carsten Schuchmann, teams up with Get Physical regular Einzelkind, Arno Voelker and Migual Ayala, for 'Words from the Frontline'.
The EP opens with its title-track, Words from the Frontline. Indeed, the word 'frontline' is appropriate - the firm kickdrum sets the tone and pace before
a hi-hat tattoo reminiscent of a military march asserts itself. Rushing synth effects edge in from the sides before the track expands to accomodate a bending,
feintly jazzy keyboard motif. This isquickly absorbed into the track's fierce, linear 4x4 progression, and the addition of crisp snap-claps make this a
winning modern take on 2nd wave Detroit-style techno. The huge builds and subtle drops means 'Words from the Frontline' is sure to be lapped up by the
dancefloor, while the sheer quality of the production should ensure its appeal is long-lasting.
B1 'Hear the Man' is similarly. It opens with an extended vocal sample of malcom x talking about revolution, while 80s influenced keys weigh in before
mutating into a simply, unmistakeably ravery..
Style: Progress House
Released: Sep. 2007/39
