│release notes.
What we're gonna do right now is go way back...
As impossible as it is to imagine in this era of microgenre,
rudderless dance journalism and poverty of imagination there was a
place on West 38th Street where for a period of time between 1988
and 1992 it all came together.
So many stories started here that we can't possibly list them all
but in the house of Mendez and Russell it was possible to find the
scenes not songs of the Burrell Bros, the dubby experimentation of
Konders, the jazzy excursions of Peter Daou and Smash, the deepest
garage of Musto, Simonelli and Bastone, the disco stylings of Joey
Negro, the breakbeat science of How & Little, Dee and Bones, the
techno roots of Beltram and the MAW blueprint under one roof and
often on one shelf of your local record shop (remember them).
One a dem records where you would have liked to have been in room
when they made it ;) Worth quoting Alain_Patrick of discogs in
full:
Major Problems, a seminal project by Lenny Dee and Ralphie Dee,
figures among the Nu Groove's most influential releases. On that
matter, Lenny D. declared: "I was in a very strange place,
experiencing ecstasy for the first time. The UK government ran an
advert with a guy attached to a life support machine with the
slogan "The Effects Can Last Forever". This poster & billboard was
all over the United Kingdom. Needless to say, I thought it was
fuckin great, as I was totally into X".
Ralphie dee & Lenny Dee were producing, but Lenny's studio was not
yet ready to mix tracks - so Frank Mendez from Nu Groove suggested
a studio from a kid named Joey Beltram where he was signing some of
his early freestyle tunes. Frank hooked them up & they (Lenny Dee &
Ralphie Dee) made their first teckno tracks in Joey's studio. The
tunes were made up of digital synths & drum samples from their drum
machines. They used Lenny Dee's Rolland Juno Alpha 1 and the M1
Korg to name a couple, and also sampled their analogue bass line to
give a loop type feel (which was after copied by other artists such
as Puff Daddy).
The most well-known track of this EP, "Overdose (The Final Trip)",
sampled 'Adonis - No Way Back's bass line, and was at the same time
sampled by Ben Sims, Phil Vernol & Rob Jarvis' "Killa Bite 1 EP".
