Ant - Tooled Up - London Underground Techno Sessions Vol. 001 FLAC

One of the best, and if not that, then definitely one of the fiercest mixes I've had listened to. Any given branch of electronic music counted in.
The level of energy throughout is off the hinges. A tempestous blizzard of deviant acid lines and hammer head techno beats. The propulsive rhythmic drive of techno meets London's squat style 303 obsessed material in a torrential poutporri of constant acid driven climaxes, savage percussion sweeps and enough ballsy attitude to last you four CD surfaces.

Not much more to add here. If you have enjoyed any, and I do mean any of the Stay Up Forever collective's compilations / mixes, and have not yet reached this one (or were unaware of its existence), then be aware that you're perhaps missing out on the finest one of them all.

Huge words, I know. We are not competing or comparing here. But if you like your techno spiced up with the mischevious sounds of the silver box, tossed in a blender with protein food supplements, coated in hard bass lines fresh outta the meat grinder, and then all together served as a single dish at the expertise hands of a skilled DJ - this is a must own release.

I got this one after all the Smitten, Routemaster and Truelove mixes, and it's outplayed them all. Not as anthemic, known or hyped. It's dirty, knee deep in heavy fog and begs for no pardon. Party hard stomp your feet bang your head acid techno perfection.
