Two things stand out on this release: the proggy groove and the breathy vocal. That this is the voice of Jon Fugler, once of Fluke, should come as no surprise. His voice was a very pervasive one on dance floors in the early nineties and I dare say it’s instantly recognizable to many who were throwing shapes around that time. In typical Tici Taci style the beat is everything, an omnipresent, but inconspicuous schaffel that draws in even the most uncoordinated and has them bouncing around like loons, which is probably best embodied by Peza’s Dub. All the mixes hit that oscillating g-spot, with my personal pick being Retroforward’s darker take, which dispenses with the vocal to emphasize a trance-inducing acid squiggle. Central heating for space cadets.
