Free Spirit – Optical Illusion

I’ve been kind of slow to upload lately since my main PC died, I can rip vinyl from my laptop but the software I wrote which auto-tags / labels /adds artwork to mp3s the way I like isn’t on this machine. So the ID3 tags are gonna be a bit weird for a while. Anyway, here’s a nice track I picked up not too long ago, I’d been meaning to get more on this label after tracking down the incredibly elusive and awesome 2 Track version of “Deeper”, which I play out all the time even in non-rave sets. This EP isn’t as good as that EP but is still pretty nice – the A side has a strong piano tune with heavily compressed/noisy amens and heavy 4beat underpinning. It’s a bit more anthem-y than these B side tracks, but this B1 track is nice too – solid beats, some piano, a bit of ragga, everything you’d expect from a 92-93 track.

    Once again! Excellent choice here.. This tune’s been in my recordbag since day one.. Always liked the intro (Sampling “House Of Pain – Jump Around”). And that piano is something little different you’ve used to, more straight forward.. ;)

    Thanks, great to know! I’ve disabled the download if you send me the link it can be bought at I’ll add that in instead.
    If you want I can remove the streaming as well from here / replace it with a juno player.

    Respect for doing such great tunes! “Deeper” is still one of my all-time favorite anthems (one of the versions on the 2 track copy, which I definitely prefer to the 3 track one)
