Kevin Saunderson Feat. Inner City

When Kevin Saunderson moved from Brooklyn NY to small town Belleville 30 miles from Detroit no one could have predicted that he along with Juan Atkins and Derrick May would completely revolutionize music and once again put Detroit back on the musical map. But this is of course precisely what they accomplished with their early efforts.

"Inner City is a Saunderson collaboration that came about "by accident," according to Saunderson. In 1987 he recorded a backing track in his home studio, but needed lyrics and a female vocalist. His friend, Chicago house producer Terry ‘Housemaster’ Baldwin suggested Chicago native Shanna Jackson a.k.a. Paris Grey."1 (Wiki)

Kevin returns here with his 'Inner City' project that features the inimitable Paris Grey on vocals and with the help of fellow Detroit dweller Kenny Larkin we see Kevin reclaim the form of the early nineties techno. Pumping machinations and cut and paste vocal edits from Larkin chop this track into many collage pieces that seem to be out of sync with the structure of the track but never let go of your feet and waistline. Especially when the cut kicks into full steam at the 2 and half minute mark.

The 'Future EP' is released on Defected and Vendetta Spain and can be purchased HERE, HERE and HERE!
