ALEX KASSIAN

Following on from last year's massive E2-E4, Alex Kassian returns to Test Pressing Records with the next in the rework series. This time tackling Spooky's 'Orange Coloured Liquid' taken from their seminal debut LP, 'Gargantuam' released in 1993. Spooky, alongside acts like Underworld and Leftfield were at the forefront of the burgeoning progressive house scene at the turn of the 90's. Now 32 years later, man of the moment, Alex Kassian has proved once again that he can do no wrong with two versions that run from the club to the home. John Beltran also makes welcome appearance under his Placid Angles alias and the original version rounds off the release.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: After winning our 12" of last year with his reworking of "E2-E4", Alex Kassian returns with another monumental reworking. Now I might be ruffling some feathers here, but I actually prefer "Orange Coloured Liquid" to "E2-E4" (eeek!), so I had a keen ear on Alex and Placid Angels here to do this track justice. And do it justice they do! A second triumph in the series! Destined to be huge!

After the hugely successful 'Leave Your Life' & 'Strings Of Eden' EPs, Alex Kassian continues to defy convention and expectation with his return to Pinchy and Friends Recordings. The 'Body Singer' EP channels Alex's teenage dream of being in a band, taking inspiration from his love of 80’s movies, complete with Analog New Wave / Psyche / Kraut Rock influences. Its a trip down memory lane, or perhaps the soundtrack to something magical that hasn't happened yet. It's the audio behind that montage in that film you're watching, but the film is in fact, your own life.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Alex Kassian's third release on Pinchy & Friends and like the two before it, looks set to nestle comfortably into your record boxes and home stereo systems for a long time to come. Possessing a timeless quality, relaxed mood and warm glow, these daydreaming drifters are the perfect accompaniment to hammocking in the garden as the mercury rises.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Probably one of the most the eagerly anticipated twelves of the year. Alex Kassian and Mad Professor deliver new versions of Manuel Gottsching's epic Balearic-house-krautrock crossover monster "E2-E4". Without doubt it's the release of the year!!!
