Welcome To The Blackout
In no other year was the end of the world as fashionable as it is in 2012. But while Roland Emmerich has to dig knee-deep in trash and throw millions out the window for special effects gimmickry in order to bring drama to the screen, it only takes Sierra Sam a freshly made studio in our comforting Berlin-based Upon You refuge. A newcomer to our crew, this Belgian producer and label owner of Toys For Boys has already established his own decade-plus career, and his experience shines through clearly on UY059. The title track "Welcome to the Blackout" holds up not just on great production, but also from the mystical vocals that Paris The Black Fu offered for this release. Thats why weve included the a cappella as a digital bonus, for the more adventurous DJs out there. For the flip side, Sierra Sam picked his English cohort Inxec already known for his numerous releases on labels such as Cocoon, Cityfox, Contexterrior and currently Crosstown Rebels for a fresh remix. Closing track Chambers seals the deal on this singing, ringing hit plastic disc that no survival kit should be without.
