Got a battered Copy of this in with a job lot a while back, scratched to fuck which is a real shame as it's A really nice tune which I will upgrade one day. On a par with Bukem's stuff at the time but don't remember hearing it played out much. Bit of a hidden gem and well worth tracking down a copy

Thanks, much appreciated. Not heard this one before, will check it out

Hi man. Just read your comment and thought you might like the link to a Bukem set that plays Currents, and the SOL Currents remix from a later release on Cert 18. https://soundcloud.com/dj-jo-public/ltj-bukem-mc-conrad-strictly-jungle-intelligent-deep-dnb-1995safe

Early track from Source Direct which I bought randomly having liked their Hokusai tunes.Current (at 33rpm). Very funky opening groove which brakes into strange synth pads that rise up unexpectedly. The very best SD tunes are unique because they manage to combine jazz and ambient while keeping the breaks rolling. They have a unique way of chopping up the breaks which give them an almost tribal feel and they use strange chords which give a sense of deep unease. This is one of their best and a bit underrated. I can't imagine it being popular on the dance floor as just too strange, it's like the sound track to a film about bizarre deep sea fish...Intellect (at 45rpm) opens with a blaze of percussion before dropping into lush synths and quaking bass. Not quite SD on autopilot, they set themselves such high standards, but not as memorable as their best stuff.Worth getting for the A side if you like stuff that works both for chilling with a very musical approach.Frank @ London School of Sound
