Description
Strut present 'Metal Dance', a new compilation from one of the UK's most respected DJ / producers, the man behind Playgroup and original founder of the legendary label Output Recordings, Trevor Jackson. Great compilation - check!
Jackson cherry-picks classics and rarities from the mid eighties era, including a new edit of Nitzer Ebb favourite 'Control I'm Here' (sampled on Quartz' rave classic 'Meltdown'), the cold dance of Analysis' 'Surface Tension', Neon's dark 'Voices', re-interpreting a Master C&J riff from the early days of Chicago house, and hard-hitting dubs from Pete Shelley, Alien Sex Fiend and more. Herein lie sounds that have heavily influenced today's crop of artists - from LCD Soundsystem and The Knife to Factory Floor and Hot Chip.
Elsewhere on the album, Jackson brings in unexpected gems - a track from cult John Carpenter film 'Escape From New York' re-edited by Klein & MBO's Mario Boncaldo, a lost album track by avant garde Spanish artist Diseno Corbusier and a UK promo-only mix of Yello's 'You Gotta Say Yes To Another Excess'.
