Public Possession Germany Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Seven months on from the release of his superb Paris, Rome album, Public Possession regular DJ City returns to the Munich-based imprint - and this time he's got sometime Wolf Music and Semi Delicious contributor Manuel Darquart in tow. The pair treat us to three takes on 'I Need'. There's the EP-leading 'Italo Version', a smooth, dreamy and suitably sun-splashed electronic house cut smothered in Italo-disco style synths and a stylised lead vocal by Darquart; the more stripped-back, deep house style warmth of the 'Club Version'; and a DJ-friendly 'Beatless Version' that's propelled forwards by a restless bassline and cascading synth sounds. It also offers more opportunity to wallow in Darquart's effects-laden vocal.
