Hear My Name

REPRESS: Berlin's Steffen Laschinski aka Rising Sun is back on his own Kristofferson Kristofferson imprint, and the fiery deep house producer returns with two explorative cuts that will surely resonate with fans of Shed and his High Power sound. "Yours" is filled with slamming breaks from start to finish and, although this is categorised as house music, we prefer to think of it as effective breakbeat for the DJ wanting to deviate a little from the 4/4 norm. On the B-side, "Importance (Essay)" takes all our attention thanks to its bass-less percussive form; what we love about the tune is its freedom of movement and total neglect for anything tool-related.
