The deep house crew brings you once again a high quality release of
soulful dance music.. music with emotion that deserves the promotion..

The great pioneers of electronic music have often served as
godfathers of the budding genres of the 80s and 90s - of techno,
trance and electro. Manuel G÷ttsching has also been referred to as
the "inventor of chill-out", which is supposed to be a compliment,
but does neither his much more eclectic oeuvre (which ranges from
blues-tinged Rock to electro-acoustic sound tracks), as well as the
piece which was responsible for this title ("E2-E4") full justice. On
the other hand, it is clear that there are affinities between his
output and some currents within contemporary dance music. For
instance, it is no coincidence that his warm, dreamy and yet
rhythmically pulsating pieces of the 70s still make for an incredible
source of inspiration for house artists such as Joaquin Joe
Claussell.
Some of them have been known to spin "E2-E4" at the later stages of
their DJ sets, both as a tribute and sign of appreciation as aell as
a stunning track which still works great as a dancefloor hymn.
Claussell, too, does not hold back when it comes to venting respect:
ôInspired by the works of a geniusö, the booklet says and reveals him
as a fan. It is not always a good thing when all too dedicated
aficionados turn their love for an artists into music, but on this
record, the handshake between the generations and continents works
wonderfully well. It is an historical handshake as well. Claussell
has used two G÷ttsching originals for his careful additions and
delicate remodelling, a live performance from 1976 and another dating
back to 1979. His work is characterised by his admiration for Manuel,
but unlike many of his contemporaries, he shows great intuition when
it comes to the spirit of the 70s: The opening "Deep(er) Distance"
heaves and breathes calmly in the course of its twenty minutes, going
from sweet synth leads to a brightly shimmering guitar solo, which
seems to break up the wall of clouds hanging on a blue sky to let the
sun shine through. The way this piece is caught in a mode of stop and
go, but never looses its pulse is the best indication of how much
Claussell knows both about moving the mind and the feat. "Ain't no
time for Tears", meanwhile, sees the classic Ashra line-up go all
funky and latin. A steel drum intro builds to a powerful groove,
before the band slowly fades in - a great beginning to a composition
which has a lot in common with Santana's early recordings and again
is highlighted by a playful and melodically flowing G÷ttsching guitar
solo. On both compositions, Claussell has apparently left the tapes
intact and merely added some beats and an organ - his organic
approach is a welcome diversion from the egoistic and unrecognisable
remixes of most techno acts.
The last words, howver, are left to his hero, who shows he needs to
help in the formidable ôShuttlecockö, a final eighteen minute
excursion, which has Manuel improvise over a soft carpet of delayed
bell sounds, before the guitar fades away and the track deepens and
thickens, like a dark river sweeping along ever more motives and
harmonies. A perfectly balanceed collaboration, which is being
released both as a CD and an LP, with the latter clocking in at about
eight minutes less due to a shortened edit of ôShuttlecockö. Which
makes this a modern vintage release, and an instant classic. Joaquin
Joe Claussell may have been inspired by a genius on this one, but the
results of his treatment are no less inspiring themselves.
