Vinyl Blair – The Trancespotter / Scratch N Sniff [1993]

[TRANCEBLASTER]

an old favourite from 'Leftfield's label 'Hard Hands', the future sounded better in the past

discogs review:

''The Trancespotter (Turbo Nation Trance Groove)'' is an oldskool trance tune, which happens to be one of my favorite trance tracks of all times. All the elements of the track, are dark, trippy, deep, with plethora of layers, adding as the track builds and builds. This is a monster of a tune a real alltimes classic track, that cannot be surpassed by anything else in my opinion.
''Scratch N Sniff (The One Billion Dub Mix)'' is a way different tune than the a-side of the vinyl, it's a bouncy progressive house/ tribal track, with killer edits, many layers again, and a amen breakbeat loop in the background. It is a lovely track but doesn't touch the high quality of a -side (The Tranceporter), yet still is a great b-side, that could have been an a-side tune of any other release. Fantastic record both sides.

The Trancespotter reminds me of the Chris Raven sound at times. All the elements just sound so good to the ears too, so even though it's quite a barebones arrangement you can happily strap in for the 11mins. Bet on a mega soundsystem would be amazing.
