Review

An expanded repackaging of the previous year's FK EP, this nine-track collection includes the full four tracks from the seminal original release, plus remixes of each by fellow New York heroes the likes of Danny Tenaglia and Todd Terry, Angel Moraes, and Matthias Heilbronn & Mike Delgado. Kevorkian's prescient originals blend mid-tempo house-era percussion and basslines with sequencer-trance effects and moody synthwork, walking a fine line between house, garage, trance, and down-tempo with elan. It's a sublime sound using production methods that would only grow ubiquitous years later in the progressive trance scene. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
