Glasgow
Toronto Mix Sessions
4/5
Warm
bump and thump for all areas listening
- Canadian-based Turbo Records excels at tapping the vast pool of
lesser-acclaimed dance talent, and you're practically guaranteed
a quality performance from their Mix Sessions series regardless
of DJ familiarity Stateside.
Kenny Glasgow's been spinning north of the border since 1992, finally
laying down his first live mix. Coasting through funky techno and
house, he proves a standout in molding different styles of dance
to his vision. Playful Martini Bros "Babyhaze" leads to
Si Begg's robo-scorcher "Welcome to the Discoteque", fembot
diatribe "Flexibility" from Miss Kittin & The Hacker
segues into shimmering return-of-new-wave "Panamericana"
merging with Senor Coconut's bleepundklang "Showroom Dummies."
In fact, only Anthony Rother's rigidly Germanic "Simulationszeitalter"
proves a stretch in an otherwise standout set of warm bump and thump
for all-areas listening, with enough salacious juice to go down
at a party. Well done. - Richard Diaz
