4 The Core Recordings welcomes a very special artist to the label from Tokyo - Amaretto.
Get ready for four tracks of breakbeat hardcore fire 94-95 style!
'Energy Flow' is straight from the Sy & Unknown/DJ Seduction playbook, right down to the layered breaks and rapid, ever progressing synth stabs. The amen breaks come, thick, hard and fast on this aptly titled, energy emitting musical firecracker!!!
'Living In The 90's captures the unbridled optimism of mid 90s rave with familiar vocal samples, emotive pianos (Think Love Nation or Justin Time for those who remember)and a total flip midsection of dark pads a la Tango & Ratty.
'Slammer' is just that!!! A high-speed juggernaut with deep, deadly subs and A HUGE section of rushy Korg M1 keys. There is more than a subtle nod to a famous happy hardcore producer known as 'Slammer' on this explosive banger!
It's 95 vibes all the way on 'Uplifting Piano Track' with the emphasis on uplifting, a whole lotta piano and some big kick drums, bouncing with the breaks and 303 acid. Had it been 95, Slippers, Dougal and co would cane this one!
Authentic happy hardcore fanatics apply here and grab this momentous EP!

Heavy as fuck, all of it.Terminal Velocity is pretty huge however, Stay Tuned is, quite frankly, off the planet. Well done peeps - big up.
(If you repress or have any spare I'll pay good money in a second!) Milezee
