Behind the Tech House : Release Notes
For the 61st outing, Klasse Wrecks heads north once again to Sheffield to the Peoples Republic of Soyo. The South Yorkshire city has churned out some benchmarks in electronic music over the years and the tradition seems to be continuing, judging by the new Altec 1138 EP by producers DJ Steve and KWAKE. While the purple bleep lineage can be traced in the 4 tracker, it is not ever classic or pastiche. The spacious dancefloor stompers hit more of an old U.K. Techno vibe and sometimes even venture towards John Carpenter soundtracks in mood and atmosphere. Its classic Wrecks in that its not classic at all, unconventional genre placement advised!
