House. Mixed by Andrew Weatherall. Amazon.ca Germany's leading exponent of deep, deep house offer their first retrospective, Hypercity. Andy Weatherall puts away his sabre in favour of a trip to the controls for a seamless romp through the label's back catalogue. As befits a DJ of Weatherall's legendary stature, the mix itself is without fault--68 minutes of fluidity with sparkling melodics twitching amongst insistent percussives and post-funk low end where Force Inc veterans MRI, Crane AK and Safety Scissors rub shoulders with newcomer Hakan Lidbo, all conjuring sanguine moods as opposed to simple dance tracks from their equipment. House as it should be--minimal and emotional, forward thinking and futuristic, this is an essential selection.--Kingsley Marshall
