Soul Control!


If you haven't heard this yet...go listen! Following on from the massive track "Falling Up", Sound Scupltures Vol 1 is sure to impress. Tracks like "Soul Control" and "Synthetic Flemm" really do make me think there is still hope for the house scene!
Im not going to say anymore on this, check it out: http://www.rushhour.nl/store_detailed.php?item=38806
