shan: good to me

For his maiden voyage through Space, Shan (Victor Shan, if it matters to you, and it should) offers Good To Me, a pair of revelatory dance floor productions inspired by many a long night and early morning spent at the legendary Frankfurt institution Robert Johnson. A finely-tuned specimen of durable, architectural sampling, the 12" title track runs a rigorous course of breakbeat rhythms and classic chords while a diva’s pleas are made and answered within seven minutes of perfect primetime rave. On the flip, Shan churns through metallic stabs and primed drum sequences for the devious “Version 1.” Shan spent close to four years perfecting “Version 1” through various dance oor demos, no more evident than in the stunning arc of this sought after jam.
