Special Request - Take It To The Max
Review by Lizandro Hernandez
Special Request's latest album, Take It To The Max, is a thrilling journey through the world of electronic music. The album is a perfect blend of old-school rave sounds and contemporary production techniques, making it a must-listen for fans of the genre.
The album opens with "Fett," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. It's a high-energy, bass-heavy banger that gets the listener pumped up and ready for what's to come. From there, the album takes the listener on a wild ride through a variety of different sounds and moods.
One standout track is "Elysian Fields," which features a haunting melody and a driving beat that builds to a euphoric climax. Another highlight is "Pull Up (Tim Reaper Remix)," which has a classic jungle vibe that will transport listeners back to the early days of the genre.

For many years had no idea what it was, then I found out on YouTube.
Jack Pattern - Miami Phone Call......It is majorly different, but it has that taste! but of a new era, such as the funk from this record.........what a marvellous creation!
