Released back in 1997 on John Aquaviva’s Definitive label, this is a good old fashioned prime time acid knees up, a style and sound that seems rarer than hen’s teeth in these deep tech prog times. With a thumpin fat bass groove, layers of twisting acid lines, heavily treated and trippy sounds and 2 huge peaks, we felt that the world needed to get more aquainted with Round Trip, so we picked it up and commissioned some new versions.
American dj and producer Steve Porter has been making waves on the underground scene for a few years now with mixes for Hooj, 3 Beat and Therapy; his mix is reminiscent of Deep Dish at their techie-est. A funk fuelled bassline and rollin beats pulse it along, while lush swirling pads and chiming sounds build it up, a wicked mix which has been getting support over the summer from the likes of Seaman, Fortier et al.
Thomas P Heckmnn has been one of Germany’s premier techno producers for the last 10 years, releasing over a 100 records under a plethora of aliases, most recently his Supervixens track got heavy Tong support and his rework of Nitzer Ebb appeared on Novamute. This mix is slamming, a huge pnuematic bassline propelling it along as filtered stabs and efex twist it up.
Having found current props with Carl Cox’s In-Tec label, Brian Zentz happily revisited his Barada guise to rework the track, providing a neat link back to Definitive – it was here that Brian released his debut material as Barada. His Coachclass remix is a chunky li’l acid house groover, nice and funky, trippy vocal touches, acid bassline growling away in the low-end, this has been going down a storm in the sets of Cox and DJ C-1.
