05. Saints & Sinners: Pushin Too Hard
This is almost like an old disco track but with it's hypnotic and slowly building structure is very credible still. Yet another Sasha & Diggers classic. Was one of THE tunes of millenium NYE between '99 and '00. Futureshock remix is also very nice and more pumping.
That's because it IS an old disco track. Very very heavily based on Patrick Cowley - Menergy from 1981

Gawd how come I never heard this? I must have been under a rock that year

Btw Pushin too hard was also the name of a Patrick Cowley track, from the album he produced for his friend Paul Parker. Very different from this one though. Patrick Cowley was one of the first people to die of AIDS, in november of 1982.





Jerome Isma-ae has been put out so many bombs perfectly balancing bottom heavy basslines with great hooks and always having rock solid groove. Also balancing nicely between the underground and more accesible sound. THE breakthrough producer of last couple years. I had been playing his stuff for sometime already but this was the track that totally blew my mind. This breakdown at DTM in Helsinki in the summer of 2007 bring back so many good memories.


oh - you're having pretty tough times as well ( I'm having a job, but no income yet - from end of September onwards ) Don't worry about any gift. If you can afford it, a 'snail-mail' Christmas card is fine. If you send one, don't put a too expensive one please
These classic choons are the best :tjon:
