These are mint unplayed copies, although the plain black sleeves are a very little bit scuffed. It's strange what turns up when you least expect it. "A choice example of hypnotic house I'll buy two copies and mix them together for ever because the four tracks are good enough to craft a whole night around. I particularly like hypnotizing with its mysterious uplifting quality, like a rave in the after-world. There is a heavily reverberated organ line, skating vocal echoes, and drums that sound like they're being played in another room. Very effective. More energetic than most progressive house too." - Reviewed by Moby in "DJ Magazine" A four tracker of extraordinary innovation and variety that delivers the goods hard style. All manner of unusual and some familiar sounds, blended together for a tuff , but pretty funky beat and bass line butty. Our favorite has to be the outlandish"Afterlife"- muted plucked string intro. and a "Chimes" vibe with loads of colour and riddim. More please. - Reviewed by girls on top in "Mixmag" Other Side: Afterlife (Twink/N.Annies) Orbits Theme (Twink/N.Annies) This Side: Katmando (Twink/N.Annies) Hypnotising (Twink/N.Annies)
