slammige cru (let us now praise Lee and Michael)
tuff tune, with delicious proto-vocal-science of that elf-girl gurgle at 0.57 seconds and passim
heard while making my way through the Leaving Earth list of rave LPs
from the good old days when "techno" didn't promise hair shirt longeurs and triple turntable tedium - when techno banged, slammed, kicked (and even shoveled, now and then!)... when a tune might actually contain, well, a tune - as opposed to just a grackling sound and a nail-gun beat
GTO - another example of the personnel and sonix flow between industrial and techno
Started as Greater Than One, than proliferated under a thousand aliases, in multiple modes of slammige - bleep, hard techno, near-trance, jungle-ish, gabba
tearin' tune - B-line like concrete liquifying (as the Man like Me said once upon a time)
another version
fame at last
