Electric Ballroom Germany Vinyl & CDs

Review: Electric Ballroom welcome Thomas Schumacher and A.D.H.S. through their doors for a wicked collab in the mode of big room and progressive techno, with a side-tint of psytrance. Also avowing a Bulgarian folk music influence, 'Mirazh' and 'Aksijan' command epic dynamic pressurisations by way of gargantuan kick and FM stabs at the acme, and arpy rate-modulated buildups at the nadirs. 'Aksijan' is particularly harsh and forceful, owing to the pair's no-holds-barred approach to production.

Review: Technohead were a married couple of Lee Newman and Michael Wells who also famously recorded under the other names Greater than One (GTO), Tricky Disco, Signs of Chaos and Church of Extacy, They were well known in the late 80s and early 90s for their raw techno and rave tunes that explored every genre in the electronic dance kaleidoscope from Gabber to ambient music, even scoring a UK number one single with the warwormy pop gabba of 'I Want To Be A Hippy'. In 1993, their hardcore hit 'Passion' was a huge success. Now, a little more than 30 years later, German veteran Thomas Schumacher updates the track into another anthem worth checking out. Whichever side you choose, expect this slice of techno history to reign over the dancefloor. An unforgettable tune.
