Salvo Germany & Ang3lino 'Rumania'
Stacey Pullen, The Greenhouse
As a key player in the second wave of Detroit techno, Pullen needs no introduction. He’s one of the few who learnt from, and directly followed, the holy trinity of Atkins, May and Saunderson. His sets are usually driven by rolling, interlocking grooves rather than dramatic builds and drops. In the greenhouse, Pullen kept the crowd moving by deploying propulsive, complex rhythms. When he did reach for less restrained tracks, his selections always avoided formulaic breakdowns or overwrought drops. 'Rumania' was one such track, a poly-rhythmic slice of mandolin-sampling heaven.
