Funky House Recommendations November 2011

Review: Giddy up with the mysterious Kramer who serves up two edits of First Choice's 1987 classic "Let No Man Put Asunder". In the proto house days when Ron Hardy oversaw a weekend of sweaty dancing at the Musiq Box, the two revisions presented here would surely have made his box. There's a dusty veneer to both edits of the track here that makes them sound like they've been rescued off a reel to reel machine knocking on heavens door - in a similar fashion to Gene Hunt's recent Rush Hour compilation. The second edit is essentially the first edit played in reverse but regardless this twelve will appeal to house fanatics who like their music to sound rough.
