Artist:	BOND & BLOME
Title:	Control Your Soul
Label:	SENDER (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	SENDER 068EP

"After Tentacular, the first 12" from Jens Bond and Benno Blome, we are starting round two with Control Your Soul. Again, they tightened the psycho-active thumbscrews with pleasure and evoked the techno-Twilight-Zone in Blome's Switch Air Studio in endless jams. The directive vocal of the title track by itself, which sounds as if the Borg shoots its last warning through the ether before the assimilation of a new species, will lead party people to rapture. Minimal voodoo deluxe. 'Control your body, control my mind. Control my mind, control your soul.' This brings us to our knees at once. And the dancefloor surrenders with salacious gestures. In 'Submariner' you feel like soaring through the widths of the seven seas in the autopilot mode. Give us nano-tubes! Resistance is aimless, without a doubt!"

Title:	Sniffer Dog
Label:	SENDER (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$11.00
Catalog #:	SENDER 076EP

"First came 'Tentacular,' then 'Control Your Soul.' Now Jens Bond and Benno Blome put their heads together once again to bring you two more dark, delicious dabs of high-calorie techno, as bitter as baking chocolate and as tangy as a fine Cabernet. A powerful sense of bounce animates 'Sniffer Dog,' beginning with a rubbery bass line and extending to clattery percussion that never lets up. Appropriate for the title, a vague sense of menace lurks at every turn, but rich analog frequencies and gruff vocal snippets offer a reassuring sense of warmth. Straddling the line between house and techno, it's a kinetic, versatile tune with boundless spring in its step. 'Magyar Viszla' sounds as exotic as its name. Again, the palette of sounds is dark and warm, like a humid night in a foreign city, complete with honking horns and hissing neon. A low voice beckons from the shadows, drawing you into the mystery. Balancing Jens Bond's percussive signature with Benno Blome's unmistakable atmospherics, this is a true meeting of the minds, making for a tough-as-nails fusion guaranteed to ignite dancefloors of all stripes, at any hour."
