Measured by the the highest standards, which Marco Carola deserves, this is a dull and uninspired release continuing the relative decline of this label since it peaked with 3rd Question early in '99. I don't have a comprehensive discography but Carola came to my attention via excellent deep techno on the Design, Zenit & Ante Xenit labels. He moved to Germany from Naples and produced quality but old style THUMP-THUMP-buzz-whir material most notably for the Swedish school labels like Primate and Primevil. Recently he has moved on to attempting deep tech house in a sub Joel Mull mode. Hence Question..... He has now reputedly moved to London so we may see a further change in style... His great strength as a DJ is an ability to churn out deep polyrythmic dancefloor techno that sparkles and crackles right across the frequency range. He can keep 3 decks running simultaneously. Very fast. Getting a track in, moving to the next deck, changing the disk and moving on immiediately. For upward of an hour. Hence, I suspect, the volume of question style material, the bumping and complex bottom end and relative lack of high register action. His most interesting work this year, apart from 3rd Question, is a rmx of Pressure Funk on Soma. Locals or visitors to London on Thursday 27th Jan might like to know he is playing at ROTL from 19:00 to 11:00. This is a free techno night with 7k system in a pub basement which has caught the popular imagination recently with appearances by DJ Sneak, Adam Beyer, Ben Sims, Oliver Ho, Nathan Coles, Terry Francis etc etc. Decks on the bar next to the beer pumps and a clued up, noisy, up for it crowd. (Sun & 13 Canton, cnr. Beak St& Gt. Pulteny St, Soho) Also watch out for his friend from Naples Gaetek (Gaetano Parisano) who's technical skills are at least comparable to Carola. --------- er while I'm on in 'spotter mode.... Someone, I think Andrew Duke (soz if wrong ;-), was bigging up Thomas Brinkmans wonderful machine soul release on MvB. 'Soul Comfort'. Kinda like The Famous Flames or Dr Strut remixed by basic channel. New & Fresh. Converts should watch the racks for a second 12" release (not on CD this time) entitled 'J.B.'.
