Comment: Wolverhampton, UK-based Nilaesh Patel aka Patel`s 5-track issue and 35 minutes are a fatty blend of tekno, electronica, acid techno/house, electro, and on the other side there are clearly represented psy-related elements as psytrance, psytechno, and psytekno. It is a crossover issue being influenced by wild and lysergic warehouse parties of the beginning of the 1990s. It is not surprising at all because Nilaesh Patel started DJing since the mid-1990s. However, his influences seem to be remarkably more wide, for instance, at the opening Mess Around he employs a sample from a shoegaze/indie dance duo Curve`s ditty called Horrohead. It can be said the whole successfully revitalises old traditions both within the rave and psy-related scene because one can hear sublime inner burning and sultry atmosphere throughout the tracks. The great issue is a part of the discography of a legendary Japanese imprint, Bump Foot.
