***to put it simply one more time (my brain is fried, sorry): very organic
sounding, almost sounds like a live band at times; sometimes at a house tempo
with a four on the floor kick, other times more like a funk/jazz band at a
slower tempo; playable to dancers, plus quite listenable at home; swayzak is
the one that got huge positive critical and commercial acclaim in 1998; chaser
only came out this week so time will tell; chaser is nigel hayes (aka charley
brown with toronto's austin bascombe) and lars sandberg (funk d'void). if we
have to use intelligent ;) i would say the herbert and ibbotson are more so
than the ones above, but it's all excellent music, so i wouldn't say the
herbert style of abstract house is better than the organic ohouse of chaser or
the textured house of swayzak or the darker stuff of 16b, for example. it's
all house music, just different sounds. herbert and ibbotson have more of an
idmey sound i suppose, but i'll cut this short now cos i'm getting wordy. i've
got a marcel single remixed by chaser, but no album. sorry. hope this helps.
