Hey !!

Talent is a weird thing, you got it or not, some people have a talent to cook or to paint, others write novels like there's no next day. Pablo Mahiant & pierre de leener aka george jr. Shiznit don't write marquise de sade novels or run Farms in redneck towns down South like their names could suggest.

But powered by belgian beer, an impeccable taste in music and a weird and wonderful feel for Drama they create dance music with a capital d and a capital m. A year "down under" didn't convert m.scl.s from Brussels, Jean Michel n'est?Ce?Pas ?, into a Vegimite sandwich, neither did George fade into loneliness … quite The contrary ..... Massive tracks with along lasting appeal are on the rende-vous here ... be Ready to be enchanted ...

This has to be the weirdest jigsaw puzzle we ever made, even we are completely not understanding how the same tracks can be used by artists as diverse as funkerman and ur … Anyway … first up is " the last dance ": a real beauty that seems to captivate the imagination and enchant everybody that crosses it's way ….
As one DJ said : " this is the only track that makes all the DJ's in the crowd jump up and run for the DJ booth to check wtf is playing ! ".
It has been roadtested under it's secret alter ego name " soul finder " for the best part of a year, always with the same devestating effect on the dancefloor. But, hey maybe just listen for yourself and join the converted.

Illuminator is the one that makes everybody go wtf !! How can such an easy excercise in melodies be such a lethal bomb on the dancefloor, this one lighted the dancefloors up for about everybody that used it : from the deep house jock to the afterparty dj. This is da shizzle !

Mechanical fly is more a ballsy proggy affair, with unexpected breakdowns, (anti)climaxes ad Fundum and mean kick ass twists and turns all over it's 7 sonic minutes…. As a great man once said " it's all about 23 positions in a one night stand " … an unpredicatable rollercoaster from a to z …not for the weakhearted …
