I've a couple of Vincent's 12's, and they're typically very good underplayed dubbed out post-basic-channel house. The mix CD is taking some getting used to - it is (as I suppose I should have expected) very dubbed out and sometimes seems like it's a bit lacking direction, but there are some good tunes on it.
This particularly track however always gets me turning up the volume. It's one of Levon's own, and it's got some strange, indescribable magic about it.
It reeks of the old nights at The Arches that I keep on banging on about.
It's something in the rythym - that dead, boxy kick drum, and the brushes - it's all in the brushes. Missing half the beat, pushing against the kick and 2-4 all the time. Never quite fully settled, it results in a funky, insistent, claustrophobic groove that just gets better and better the louder you crank it.
