US producer Nebraska proves yet again why he's one of the world's greatest house producers. "Green Marimba" could come as a surprise to his fans as it focuses on a more stripped back, tribal rhythm than usual, but in the main this a deep house fan's wet dream. Both "88-89" and "Hi Ya" manage to capture the balance between the traditional soulfulness and machine-driven warmth that original Chicago producers like Larry Heard excelled at. Meanwhile "Tell Me Symmetrical" oozes tripped out acid excess but is underscored by the kind of atmospheric textures that Nebraska is best known for - and rounds off this essential release in style.
