Although best known these days as Cab Drivers, Berlin’s Daniel Paul and Jens “DJ Zky” Augustowsky have been working together under different aliases since 1994. Karo was one of their earliest aliases, with the Zwo 12″ – in which “Zwo Fremde” originally appeared – slipping out in 1995. It’s good to see the track getting a second airing, because it’s arguably one of the finest tech-house tracks of all time. Loopy, hypnotic, tracky and blessed with some wonderful cyclical synth motifs, it feels like the missing link between Detroit-influenced UK tech-house of that period and the more dub-focused sound of Berlin. This time round it’s accompanied by the specially recorded “Backside 50”, a similarly slick, melodious and locked-in cut bristling with spacey pads, darting acid bass and intergalactic electronics.
