Review: Garry McCartney aka Ejeca continues his mission to bring underground house and techno to the big room with this fine four-tracker on Shall Not Fade. While "Lacer" is a driving affair, McCartney goes deeper on "Make Me" and "Walk You Home". Drawing on classic US house influences, the evocative synths and uplifting vocal samples bring a warm, old school flavour to modern dance floors. "Raser" is also based on 90s styles, but on this occasion, it's the deep but high-paced techno of labels like Rotation. Meanwhile on the title track, this red-hot artist mines a more modern tradition. Featuring an upbeat, jacking groove and repetitive samples, it comes across like a more polished version of Technasia's peak-time sound.
