Two years on, Cornelius \u2018<strong>Traxman<\/strong>\u2019 Ferguson returns with the second instalment, featuring 7 exceptional new Footwork productions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Traxman<\/strong> is a bonafide OG, with a discography dating back to the halcyon era of Ghetto House in the late 80\u2019s and early 90\u2019s. 30 years on, <strong>Traxman<\/strong> is a revered figure in Chicago\u2019s urban music scene, having presided over the evolution from Ghetto House to Juke and from Juke to Footwork culture. Originally released in 1989, Work Dat Mutha Fucker by Steven Poindexter is considered to be one of the most influential tracks from the early days of Ghetto House.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Traxman<\/strong> remixes it brilliantly on this <strong>Teklife<\/strong> release, reworking the stripped back, minimalist drum beat of the original into an upfront Footwork pattern. This sense of continuity is equally evident on Let Me See You Naked feat. DJ Juicy, and Traxman\u2019s remix of To Da Hoooz by DJ Deeon.<\/p>\n<p>These productions successfully capture the sexual energy and exuberance of Ghetto House, turbo charged at 160 BPM. Elsewhere on the record, <strong>Traxman<\/strong> explores different moods whilst always keeping the dance floor firmly in mind. The opening track It\u2019s Lasting Bass lays an infectious vocal harmony over complex drum patterns and a fearsome bassline.<\/p>\n<p>Osaka opens with mellow, sultry keys before introducing a wobbling synth and diced up Orchestal samples. 4 Da Lyfe is a soulful and slightly more meditative track, with a vocal loop expressing solidarity and self-affirmation. Wildcard feat. Jana Rush, stands alone as the only track without a vocal element, instead utilising a piercing and insistent synth to create a powerful sonic intensity.<\/p>\n<p>Overall this is triumphant record, and a worthy successor to the original &#8220;<strong>Tekvision<\/strong>&#8221; release, proving once again that <strong>Traxman<\/strong> is an unrivalled exponent of MPC-driven footwork energy.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span id=\"ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription\">Teklife<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span id=\"ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_lblDescription\">Teklife<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&#8220;Tekvision Volume 1&#8221; was a stone cold classic, with Rolling Stone charting it at #3 in their top 20 EDM records of 2017.
