Special Request
Soul Music
Following a run of four incendiary 12â€s on his own imprint that drew attention from right across the dance music community, UK producer and DJ Paul Woolford delivers ‘Soul Music’, his debut full length album as Special Request, diving even deeper into the raw energy of UK pirate radio influences that informed his previous EPs.
Using a studio built almost exclusively from vintage hardware and boosted by industrial-strength EQ and an FM transmitter, Woolford constructs what he refers to as "false memories" - broadcasting his material in order to sample and re-incorporate it in a myriad of different ways. The outcome of this unorthodox method is an album of considerable weight.
Hardcore, jungle, acid, house, all distilled down to their creative crux - superb stuff!
