intro
Fine new single from much acclaimed Glasgow-based techno outfit, Slam
Glasgow's techno maestros Slam return with a more than passable A-Side, 'Astrolabe' where their Giorgio Moroder sound goes under hypnosis. The excellent, quirky but very deep B-Side, '3.8', is my favourite though. The loop effect slowly gets warped, as if the tape is warbled but this confusion leads to a great climax.

Staccato Rave (2008) |
|
| Infectious remixes of 'Staccato Rave', one of the tracks from techno duo Slam's 'Human Response' album , which maintain but also build on from the appeal of the original |
