lenny dee - emotional response

following the previous one with another older tune i have no real relation to until someone gave a heads up on. i know sort of that lenny dee had done more than the hardcore & gabber he's associated with nowadays. he started out with house and techno and did a whole load of that but after that it was mainly hardcore and all sorts of harder techno etc.

so gather my suprise or should i say gather most peoples surpise when this is brought to the table. a deeper halftime techno track that could easily be slipped into any house set when pitched down a bit. it's a gorgeous piece of music and it really contrasts the other pieces on the ep.

but i reckon lenny dee was trying to make some more "emotional" and more melodic records with the two ep's released on the l.d. sub-imprint. for instance the second ep (named "forgotten moments") includes two very melodic and emotive tracks. not that they hold as well as "emotional response" but it's well worth checking them out also.

but this track i have forever gratitude to whomever brought it to my attention, i know it was on the discogs forum but i can't be arsed to look up that thread. i should also note that the record was made with belgian producer marcus salon and i should also note that it does tread some clichéed grounds, especially the pad work but the rest is great. from the acid in the beginning to the lovely bongo drums in the middle.
