"Two of the dopest vocal party rockers from the no-holds-barred enthusiasm of 1990s euphoria make their mark here for the latest contribution to the CORE reissue series. Hailing from the major label R&B act Shai, 'This Is The Place Where You Belong' is an ingeniously simple, forward-pulling club piece de resistance, a deep chord-saturated, spacious exercise in vocal dub efficacy that helped pave the way for future generations of R&B-house remixes to make their way onto club music's radar. On the flip, the GOD Todd Terry makes his second appearance in the CORE series, remixing 'Cultured Pearls' in a breathtaking, melancholy modern electronic arrangement that affirms and reaffirms in one triumphant gesture the rightful place of songs in the dance music cannon, especially amidst the track-saturated era of house music. Refreshing and utterly effective, CORE's newest chapter reminds us that house can be more than just a concentration of disco's repetitive core, acting as a medium for fresh and visionary new explorations of soul music's complex musical character."
