Label:	PLAYHOUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	PLAY 005EP

New version of this EP that was originally released in 1995 and long deleted since... And here it is: Green Tea: reduced, danceable, intransigent, harmonic, feastful, rattling, hypnotic, impressive, house-y... Roman IV put it all into these tracks. So go ahead and listen for yourself. This record tells its own tale. Oh yeah, together with the re-released old tracks, you'll get a previously-unreleased track from this period. So have fun with "The Appeltree And Me."

Title:	Neues Testament
Label:	PLAYHOUSE (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	PLAY 148EP

Two chords is all that was left from Altes Testament released on 1995's Playhouse/Ladomat collaborative 12". What was supposed to become a remix by Roman IV himself turned out to be a new reflection on something that seems to be pretty up-to-date again these days: house. DJ Koze is full of enthusiasm as well: "Very, very nice record. So warm and funky -- all three of the tracks. The best Playhouse record in a long time." Written and produced by Roman Flügel.

Title:	La Paloma
Label:	RUNNING BACK (GERMANY)
Format:	12"
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	RB 026EP

Roman Flügel pursues his more contemplative side under his Roman IV moniker. "La Paloma" is exactly that kind of perpetual and lulling marathon jam that recollects his Testament tracks. Having said that, "Sa Caleta" looks for a more immediate hit. With a rigid punch and some greasy layers, you get Roman's take on the current or recurrent slow-motion disco craze. Finally, "Lucy" rolls over again, starts where "La Paloma" ended and makes its way up to a subliminal hook-line.
