Hi Lance,

Im terrible at reviews so here is what RubADub had to
say about it in their newsletter - im sure its about 2
months since I picked it up so you may struggle to get
one

A Guy Called Gerald - Flo Ride (Sugoi) - £5.50

This is the real deal old school UK techno here. A Guy
Called Gerald unleashe's his new Sugoi label and its a
beauty! Its quite fitting this record is called
'Flo-Ride' as this is in the same style as all those
classic Gerarld era 808 State release's. Its bass
heavy acid house that sounds bang up to date. Ltd to a
150 copies. Essential!

Cheers
BT

Not sure if anyone has mentioned Recloose but he has a few tracks that fit 
this bill... notably a track "Landscaping" off the top of my head and a few 
others worth looking into.


* Lamb - cottonwool rmxs (Fontana) 1996 (with nice fila brazilia & guy 
called gerald mixes)


I just listened to cottonwool from their album 2 days ago and the original 
still makes my hair stand on end when the choppy rhythms really get 
going.  No structure on the surface, yet somehow it all just syncopates in 
the abstract...  It's an ADHD dream come true!

There are a few Jacobs Optical Stairway releases worth checking out. 
JOS have quite a bit of detroit relavence as well. A few other JOS's 
other guises include 4Hero, Tek9, and the very detroit-esque Nu Era 
(check their amazing Beyond Gravity album if you can find it).


Ok back to the JOS info you were after...
* Jacob's Optical Stairway  - s/t cd/2xlp (R&S) 1996 (including a 
track co-produced by Juan Atkins)
* Jacob's Optical Stairway  - solar feelings cdep/12" (R&S) 1996 
(including two mixes by Claude Young)
* Jacob's Optical Stairway  - jacob's story cdep/12" (R&S) 1997 
(including Juan Atkins+Dave Angel mix)


Other tech-d'n'b-jazz tracks i might recommend...
* Innerzone Orchestra - bug in a bassbin rmxs cd, 3x12", 10" (MoWax) 
(includes mixes by carl craig, claude young, 4hero [sound familiar], 
future/past, and peshay) - the best mix is claude's 31st Century Jazz 
Mix on the 10" all released in 1996

* Florence - the vinyard 12" (Eevolute) 1995 (with nice peter ford mix)
* Reload - autoreload vol 2 cdep (Infonet) 1993 (with amazing mixes 
by Black Dog and Global Communications)
* Lamb - cottonwool rmxs (Fontana) 1996 (with nice fila brazilia & 
guy called gerald mixes)
* Sensorama  - Zu Gast auf der Welcome Insel cd/2xlp (Ladomat) 1996 
(claude mix is the d'n'b-ish track but highlights also include mixes 
by Born Under a Rhyming Planet and Move D)


And last but hardly least...
* A Guy Called Gerald: black secret technology (Juice Box) (one of 
the great d'n'b tech releases)
* A Guy Called Gerald: essence (Studio K7!) (a few highlights like 
'humanity' and 'fever' - good rmxs by black dog, ashley beedle, too)
* A Guy Called Gerald: to all things what they need (Studio K7!) (new 
one. nice spacy ambient moods and less vocals)


While on the topic of AGCG, anybody know if the Juice Box represses 
of the back catalog ever came out?  gerald mentioned on his website 
last year that he was planning represses of them all but i have yet 
to see them. i've always wanted copies of hot lemonade, 28 gun bad 
boy, and all the other early Juice Box 12"s i was never able to find.


Also any reviews on Gerald's new Sugoi Recordings label? supposedly 
it will be more on the detroit-techno-acid tip. The first release on 
the label 'Flo-Ride' was due out this month. Any details or reviwes 
out there?


ok, class dismissed. back to work for me...
