Review:
If, like us, you're still getting pain pangs from Dissident withdrawal symptoms, the recent spate of digital reissues from Andy Blake's long-gone label offers some relief. The latest cut to get dusted down and re-released is "The Bounce", the seventh track from Blake's own Control Voltage project. Despite its vintage - it originally appeared way back in 2008 - "The Bounce" has lost none of its power. Like much of Blake's work since - and the musical direction of his World Unknown night and label - it offers an uncompromising, twisted take on late night acid house. Its energy and ragged, analogue sound recall not only Phuture 303 and Virgo Four, but also the darker fringes of Detroit techno.
