TERRY FRANCIS — the legend who helped pioneer UK tech house through his work in HOUSEY DOINGZ and by running the WIGGLE label — is the focus of a new reissue project spotlighting his hard-to-find material! First up is a repress of "Took From Me" (1998), a UK tech house classic and masterpiece whose paranoid vocals and dark bassline are unforgettable after a single listen.
The esteemed 〈SUSHITECH〉, whose major HOUSEY DOINGZ reissue series was one of this year's highlights, now has its sublabel 〈PARITER〉 reissuing rare TERRY FRANCIS work! "Took From Me" (sample1) is a leftfield UK tech house classic, with processed vocal samples drifting through an enigmatic mood. Also from the same single, "Little 'N' Large" (sample2) rides a sweet humming sample that's every bit as eerie, striking a perfect balance between house and techno. The flip also features a previously unreleased retake of "Furry," the popular 1997 cut of cosmic tech music!
