SKOOZBOT Next To Monchhichi PLUS8095 After his telling contribution to the recent JPLS long player Twilite, the magnificently named Skoozbot get his very own release on Plus8. The original version of Next To Monchhichi is an exercise in raw, stripped down tech-funk. Penned in by a raucous kick / snare pattern reminiscent of Phuture?s ?We are Phuture?. The reverberating bassline is all over you in seconds, with subtle variations that lock straight into the groove. The main percussive lead then gate-crashes the proceedings and heads straight for the bar, serving up a potent cocktail together with the distorted, shuffling hihat pattern that gives the track some real bite. Sure enough, the electric interplay between these carefully nurtured sounds will have you dancing over hot coals as Skoozbot takes the party on to the next level. Which is where Adam Beyer comes in. The bassline is deeper, the beats are set to warp speed and the percussive bleeps this time occupy the outfield. Nevertheless Beyer stays refreshingly true to the art of the remix, twisting the original sounds ever so slightly and embellishing the arrangement with a little extra studio trickery to increase the pressure, but still retains the basic structure and never loses sight of the intent of the original. Paco Osuna is also on hand, ruffing up the original with an edgy two note sliding bassline and filtered variations of the main riff. The hihats and snare rolls rain down relentlessly on the dancefloor before the track opens out into a cavernous breakdown and the main percussive motif is tweaked to oblivion. The vinyl also includes A Fistful Of Duckets ? it?s a cool, electro flavoured workout with an earthy bassline and skipping beats but don?t be fooled - there?s a deadly sting in its tail. The two additional digital download tracks that make up the release are also very much worth their weight in zeros and ones. Lemma Three and Lost both represent trademark midwest techno with deep, dark suspended basslines and powerful low slung grooves that are topped off by twisted reverse vox fx and more infectious, skipping percussion sequences.
