Frank De Wulf's seminal B-Sides tracks were a flagship of quality in the very
early 90s for techno & house music, which were pretty much a guaranteed success
for the dancefloor and for listening pleasure.
This release being one of my personal favourites of th B-Sides series.
A1 Magic Orchestra is a bit of an anthem played at all the underground clubs and
much sampled, appeared as a very good remix on - The B-Sides Remixed - release
in the early part of 1991.
A2 Freestyle 909 (my personal fave on this EP), has a basic 4/4 909 beat with a
dark, stark, sinister, massive Detroit soundtrack inspired, heart stopping
string-synth akin to Reese's - Rock To The Beat - but played with even darker,
striking chords, a couple of chorus breaks with key stabs in between,
reminiscent of - Strings Of Life - No nonsense techno tunage.
A3 Latino is subdued and soulful, with a mellower, groovy house sound
reminiscent of what is already mentioned above referring to - Last Rhythm - nice
track.
A4 Heat Of The Moment is another mellow track with lots of ambience and nice
breaks, with a saxophone riff...the only downfall for me are the spoken,
somewhat cheesy vocals. TEKNONUTTER, Sep 2004
