Yoshiesque

This seamless mix is the epitome of class. Though epic in length, you won't be bored. Throughout, we are treated to tracks that stand apart from the herd in terms of sheer quality and craftsmanship. Jark Prongo's hypnotic yet rockin' "Wave 2081" is here, along with Soma classic "Tall Stories" by Chaser. Reaching a wonderfully driving, funky crescendo with Basco's "Music With A Feel", the elation is sustained courtesy of Amoeba Assassin's "Rollercoaster", ending with Underworld's superb "Jumbo". Perfection? That's only the first CD!
The next dish is served with altogether more beef, starting with furious funk from the Lo Fidelity Allstars. Jason Jinx's "The NY Experience" is a similarly sublime yet intense experience: echoing, reversed keys and skittering voices all in evidence over a ruff house groove, which mutates into Mysterious People's deeply compulsive "Fly Away". Beautiful, expansive tracks become almost techno grooves with Smoked's "Retro". Adam F's "Music In My Mind" takes over, all vocoder, pinprick harmonies and swirling synth washes. A seriously driving workout ensues with Armand Van Helden's remix of "Slippin' Into Darkness" rocking without reserve. The message is by now perhaps clear: buy YOSHIESQUE now, or continue the relative drudgery of your life a less enriched human being.|
