Here’s one of many highlights from the back catalogue of Matthew Puffett, an all-round dude and a strong contender for the title of Techno’s Nicest Man. This 1997 cut is a slice of downtempo techno that blasts the 808 from Sexual Healing into a vortex of effects and pairs it with sweeping chords worthy of Carl Craig or Stasis. It’s all about the bassline that kicks in at 2.40 – electronic music doesn’t get much more blissful.
Originally released on Void Records, on a doublepack you should be able to buy for peanuts on Discogs, it’s now also available digitally as part of the essential Void Archives digital release – you know what to do.
